| Hi folks, I have a question about preserved cats that I didn't see in the listserv archive: How long do preserved cats last if refrigerated? Has anyone tried to use cats (preserved in Carolina's "Perfect Solution") for muscles in A&P 1 as well as viscera and circulatory system in A&P 2? I'm used to using the whole animal in a comparative anatomy lab, but not sure how well they weather two semesters of use. Does anyone have a sense of their favorite preservative that prevents decay without being too hard on the students' noses? I know that this is a balance...any opinions would be welcome. Thanks!
