Never eaten cat? Why don't you try an authentic Chinese restaurant?

Gene Royer wrote: "The Grim Reaper" wrote: "Ciruelax" wrote: http://biology.clc.uc.edu/fankhauser...gy/A&P201/Cat_ Skinning/Cat_Skinning.htm Just had to be done. A lovely page showing the disection of cats in glorious color. The cat lovers will adore seeing them put to this worthy use. The local SPCA kills thousands of cats each month here in my city. I wish it weren't so; but if their carcasses can be used to make the lives of humans better it is a good thing. Well, it's obvious that 'someone' made a poor attempt at trolling. But since you made the comment about the animals being put to good use... Years ago in my youth, I worked for a vet. They'd put down animals and the ASPCA would show up once a week and collect the carcasses. We'd just put them in plastic garbage bags, tie them shut and put them outside the backdoor. On day I became curious and asked what the ASPCA did with carcasses. Well, they sold them to the knackers. Yes, that's right, we're talking *soap* and other fine products. I've often thought that the soap manufacturers should have given their products better names, just to 'honor' the ingredients. Instead of Ivory, Fluffy. Instead of Zest, Fido. You get the idea. I know that the ASPCA probably claims that they cremate the carcasses, but I'll bet they still sell them to the knackers when they can. Think about that the next time you climg into the shower. Bobbi --- Roberta Hatch '65 Panhead Dykes on Bikes, San Francisco, CA (This space for rent) Bathing with soap made from feline doesn't bother me any more than that I eat the outsides of many other animals. And some of them, I eat the insides, too. Tripe, for example is a delicious--but very stringy--meal. And liver is a healthy treat. I have never knowingly eaten a cat, and I can't imagine that I would enjoy it either way. But I have eaten other kinds of animals that people keep for pets. Lamb, veal, chicken, duck, rabbit and squirrel. I've never eaten a raccoon. --Geno |

Women, BTW, as a statistical matter, who have had a few abortions amongst them. Can you imagine 120,000 dead whales washing up on the shores of our coastline every month? Well, that's the number of babies tossed into dumpsters every month in this country. Yeppers, save the whales! |

Well, that's the number of babies tossed into dumpsters every month in this country. And from the way the population is growing and the welfare ranks are growing, that is not nearly enough being tossed into dumpsters. If only we could find a way to use cats other than at Chinese restaurants. Cork-O-Mattic The Proper Stopper Exclusive butt plug of the Special Olympics |
