That would be me.

Well, bucko, in high school you were at least 14, and at least at my high school the dissecting-the-cat class wasn't available until your junior or senior year.

Well, as a 5th-grader, I would not have been grossed out by a cat dissection. Neither would have some of my classmates, who seemed to have regressed to the 5th-grader mindset when they deviated from the dissection procedures by extracting the intestines from their cats and attempted to squeeze out poop onto each other's laboratory stations. I assure you that the extent of my interaction with the intestines of
my cat was limited to poking at it, checking its elasticity, and wondering aloud how I would string it up on my violin (I was joking with my lab partner who didn't know that "catgut" strings actually consisted of sheep intestines).
