Good heavens!  Medical school makes everybody "a little crazy!" Let's hope
he learned something.  (It COULD have been human corpses that he
experimented on!)
(I wonder if he harvested any stem cells?)  lol  Sorry - I get a little
crazy when I stay up this late, too.

I say let the past be the past on this one.

The "Cat" issue comes from the following:

"While in medical school, Frist adopted cats from Boston animal
shelters, telling shelter staff he intended to keep them as pets. He
would then experiment on and kill the animals as part of his medical
studies. Later, in his 1989 book Transplant, he commented: "It was a
heinous and dishonest thing to do. I was going a little crazy."
Although Frist's practice has been in the public eye for 11 years, the
matter appears to be gathering new attention since his election as
Senate majority leader [1]. PETA has recently called on him to
apologize."
