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.

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.

education

Let me just put it this way - dissection left a lasting impression on
me, and not in a good way. 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:
