I'm back in Addis and, hey, you guys -- Look, look, look at this!

Dr Sandra Miller (Animal Medical Associates in Saco Maine) has given us
a tentative list of items she can donate to the vet lab and clinic that
we are starting here in Addis Ababa (Ethiopia):

    2 anesthesia machines
    3 surgical chaire
    1 Clay Adams centrifuge
    1 Adams micro hematocrit centrifuge
    3 xray plates
    1 Polaris ceiling mounted surgical light
    1 xray viewer
    1 gas Autoclave
    1 Bacrassay Environment Chamber
    Also, perhaps blood machines.

What a wonderful donation. Here's her website:

Jonas and Rico are dancing around the room as I type this. Maybe they
know?

Do any of you know people who could help us get the equipment from the
US to Addis?

I'm looking into sea transport, and a friend hopes to make us a
connection w a diplomat, but we need any inspirations you can offer.

Hi FML'rs

I was wondering if anyone has experience using neem oil for controling
fleas.

Not sure if I spelt it right.

Many hugs to those whose ferkids have crossed the bridge lately, so
hard to part with such awesome friends as ferrets

Hugs Michelle and the Clan
