Abstract
MESSRS. BURT WILDER AND GAGE are not the first anatomists to employ the domestic cat as an introduction to the study of vertebrate anatomy. In 1881 Mr. St. George Mivart published an elaborate treatise on the Cat, as a type for examination and comparison with other vertebrates; and as far back as 1845 M. Straus-Durckheim issued his well-known work in the French language on this animal.
