Oh, and there’s an entire industry around freeze drying pets (it’s an offshoot of old style taxidermy) so you can keep them forever.

Freeze drying is very useful when you want to preserve something without significantly altering it. But, in this case it’s being used to dehydrate something that really doesn’t want to be dehydrated without turning into a brick. By freeze drying it, I get the water out, but I can also keep it as a powder.

dude, totally awesome. I have always wanted to be able to freeze dry my own stuff. That sounds really nifty.
