To Paula Smith:

    You can go ahead and bathe her with some baby shampoo, just to be on
the safe side.  Then she won't smell like a frito (Colleen says ours smell
like popcorn).  Remember, we often use soap to clean open wounds, so it
doesn't really hurt.  Now if we had to deal with fleas, that would be
another problem...
