"The Ceramic Pet Fountain:

Unlike plastic pet fountains that develop cracks, this drinking fountain is made from durable, nonporous glazed ceramic that mitigates bacteria growth. Ceramic resists bacteria that cause acne on a pet's mouth and chin.

I want to give my patient water, but there aren't any cups. Ou est votre goblet? Ici? oh. its over on the other side. by the TB ward. its the only one they have, chipped, floral, ceramic. once they are done washing the clothes, then they will bring it back. then I will give him some water.

"The Infrared LED Pain Reliever"

Using technology developed by NASA to heal astronauts injuries, this devices's 60 LEDs produce safe infrared heat to stimulate blood circulation, relieve swelling in joints, and loosen tight muscles. A study at Children's Hospital of Wisconsin showed it reduced painful inflammation by up to 37%.

He is screaming when we change the dressing. the screaming doesn't stop after we are finished. He is wriggling and tossing and kicking. hours later, he is still screaming. I want to give him morphine - but the expired vials that we had have already been stolen - another reason we can't stock narcotics. I give him some more ibuprofin. mostly to make me feel better - because he is still screaming.

"The Pet Ramp and Staircase"

This pet staircase converts into a ramp in seconds, providing a means for older or arthritic pets to reach sofas or beds without exerting undue stress on the joints and muscles. The steps fold down to form a 30 degree angle that allows pets to ascend and descend safely.


It's one of the cutest puppy's I've ever seen. We name him Barack Obama and the kids call him "Bara Bara" for short. We had him all of 2 hours - feeding him peanut milk and putting him to bed in the wash basin. Then the owner came back hauling him away by the neck. but usually, when the kids see a dog, they chase it. kick it. throw rocks at it. The dogs sulk in the shadows, blurs of rib darting in and out of crumbling compounds, snatching a fishbone or piece of rice, dodging blows. But when your kids are starving........




consumerism.

think about it.
