bwhntr Report post Posted January 24, 2010 Unfortunately the rabies test could not be completed. Prior to me telling my taxidermist that I wanted to have it tested for rabies, he had already removed the brain from the skull and put it in the trash. A wildlife biologist from game and fish stopped by and picked up the brain, but part of it was missing. They need the complete brain to test it. Fortunately nobody was "exposed" according to the Maricopa County biologist at the lab. My taxidermist used the proper precautions when handling the cat as did I. Thank you all for your comments and concerns. FYI--If you are exposed to rabies you need to seek treatment ASAP! If you wait for symtoms to appear, it will be too late.
