10/18/05 Going home!

Tomorrow I'm flying back to Baltimore for a 2 week visit! I'm psyched to see Carrie who has been working extremely hard lately and to visit my brother, sister-in-law, and parents in New York City. But before I left I wanted to post a few pics that just haven't made it to the blog yet.

I posted a picture of a litter of kittens that we had in the shelter earlier so here is one of a pack of puppies.

Remember I said that many of the patients I see have skin diseases, mostly mange? Well, even well cared for and loved animals can get scabies. In fact this puppy gave his owner an itchy present that she could have done without! He'll get totally better after a few injections of ivermectin.

These little house geckos are all around. People say that they are good to have around because they eat the bugs, but this guy looks like he'd be filled up by just one mosquito!

And I FINALLY caught a fish that was bigger than bait! Unforunately, the guys who fish at Quarantine Point told me that Porcupine Puffer fish are too hard to clean and eat. So I snapped a photo and sent him back home!
