This heart belongs to a client's beloved cat that sadly passed away, and has been fluid-preserved. It was so beautiful I had to take a photo before placing it in it's permanent storage jar. I've preserved countless hearts over the years and something about this one captivated me. I didn't meet the cat while she was alive but speaking with her owner she was truly a remarkable loving soul with a unique spirit. I'd like to thank the client for allowing me to share this photograph. 🖤 . . . #preservedheart #petpreservation #petmemorial #wetspecimen #fluidpreservation (at Kansas City, Missouri) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzbHdstHEpO/?igshid=1i0u3pil2c40f

I find this fascinating 💔 @Regrann from @remains2beseen - "Mary Shelley and the Heart of her Beloved Percy": On this day (Feb 1st) in 1851 Mary Shelley, author of 'Frankenstein', passed away. She was 53 years old and died of a suspected brain tumour. I’m featuring her on this instagram because on the first anniversary of her death her family opened her desk and in it they found a peculiar parcel: a page of a poem by her husband, the famous Percy Bysse Shelley, wrapped round a silk package containing some of Percy’s ashes and the remains of his heart. Percy had died in a boating accident around 1822 and was cremated on the beach by 3 male friends for quarantine reasons, so it was theorised that one of the men, Trelawney, must have removed Percy’s heart which was eventually given to Mary who kept it all those years. The rest of his ashes were interred and the stone above them reads Cor Cordium which is Latin for "Heart of Hearts" 💕 (This image is a digital print by Mrs Peggoty) #remains2beseen #humanremains #anatomy #pathology #valentine #valentinecountdown #heart #shelley #maryshelley #percyshelley #cremains #preservedheart #mybloodyvalentine #frankenstein
