Info on non-surgical sterilization drugs for cats and dogs
naked on the phone wrote: yes we have a low cost s/n routine around here you rendevous at the walmart, I would leave jupiter on a vet/bus/camper or something. they take them to roanoke.. do the work.. then bring them back on sunday morning. she would have to stay overnight. total cost $45 includes pain med. to be honest? I set it up, i was scheduled to arrive, this has been several months ago. i slam forgot. it's not pretty to tell.. but I did, i totally forgot. sigh That's bad. about "Krazy" (op)... lets be adults here, there are many colleges and schools that will buy a dead cat for $3 per cat. the cat can't be over so many pounds.. but that's the only requirement. The shelter freezes the animal, till the school comes and picks them up. I have never heard of that. The cats we dissected were embalmed and cost about $50 each in 1981-85. They have their veins and arteries injected with different colors of latex so that when you dissect them, you can tell which is which. Necropsy on a dead, non-embalmed cat would be useless to anyone who didn't already have a significant grasp of feline anatomy. yes i know, it sounds gruesome, but the schools study imo is well worth the maturity needed to carry out this sort of action I didn't learn anything from dissecting cats (or fetal pigs or human hands) that I couldn't have learned from a model, books and videos. I didn't have to stick my face in stinky dead things to memorize the parts. I believe medical students should dissect whole dead people, but for anyone else, dissection is a waste of time and animals. The school where I went to undergrad also experimented on living dogs (vivisection) which were purchased from a class-B animal dealer. http://www.hsus.org/animals_in_resea...n_and_out.html It was one of the sickest practices I have witnessed personally. Ironically I worked for the biology department, so I saw the dogs in the cages for the few weeks we had them, stacked on top of each other. It is a sight ingrained in my mind. I also was the one who unpacked and put away the dead cats when they arrived. it's about medicine, and learning what do you think about that program? See above. -L. |

I resented having to do it my entire life when I realized what a waste it was for the animals. There wasn't a single thing I learned that I couldn't have achieved through other means, and my memories of those courses and the information I learned would be so much more pleasant than they are today, had I not been foreced to do dissection. You do not have to look at the greater omentum in person, to get an idea of how repulsive it truly is: http://www.nvcc.edu/home/lmiller/atl...#picture_index -L. |
