- Is that what makes her talk?
My cat "Gangster"(Agamyxis pectinifrons) passed away on the 29th of February. He had been fighting something off for sometime. I did some sampling of the water parameters and they did not indicate anything suspicious.
After he passed on, I brought him to the school lab for further examination. I was not satisfied accepting she got sick and died. WHY WHY WHY...
So today I went further with help opening her up and sampling the tissues and organs for signs of what she was battling.
After removing the organs in her abdomen I saw a really interesting bony structure. Please see the attached pictures with pins.
Also, I noticed her a gland of some sort between her eyes. Is it her "third eye" her pinneal gland?
There are so many questions that I will continue to develop as time passes, can someone please direct to some resources or science journals on this amazing friend of ours?
Thank you!!
Eric
PS: I am will be preserving her bony skeleton for future reference and continued admiration.
