I had a pretty ideal seal day today (two calls, but only one rescue, a relatively late start, with no midnight feed). Since our day started late, I have an overnight guest, Chunky. Chunky will be on his third tubing by breakfast, so he'll be getting his first taste of a delightful treat we call Elephant Seal Formula. Actually, I guess he won't actually taste it (since we place it directly in his stomach), but I suppose he could barf some up... Anyway, I didn't want to have to make Elephant Seal Formula at 8 am, so I prepared it already. Thus my clothes (and my hands) now carry that sickly sweet Sausalito smell comprised of:
- Fish and Fish Mash (fish blended with water)
- Salmon Oil
- Milk Matrix
- Dish Soap
- Nolvasan
- Bleach
- Latex Glove Dust
Nauseating as it is, it also makes me smile. Here's hoping tomorrow is equally manageable.
