lastvoyages [Have a Hannibal, nicely dressed down in slacks and a tobacco-colored sweater, with his veterinarian's lab coat on over it. He has a young hedgehog in his hands, and Percy, his African Grey Parrot, is in his usual position on his shoulder.]
Ladies and gentlemen, I am pleased to announce that the Bargewell Veterinary Clinic and Animal Shelter has some new arrivals. Our most recent shelter resident, Miss Marple, has given birth to a litter of six healthy kittens. Now they won't be weaned and ready for at least another eight weeks, but...well. Let's give them a look at the babies, ay Percy?
[The bird fluffs his neck and hops briefly from foot to foot.] Percy is cuter!
Yes, yes you are, but you already have a home. [He tucks the hedgie into his breast pocket. The hedgehog peeks out calmly and looks around as if entirely used to such treatment. Then he takes the camera and brings it over to the makeshift nursery he has made in one of the cat enclosures. Miss Marple, all ten fluffy pounds of tabby, peers irritatedly at the camera as she nurses a collection of black and tabby kittens.]
As you can see, they are all doing well, as is Mum. We have two girls, four boys, and they will be ready for gentle visitors within a few weeks. Meanwhile I will be sending out updates on a regular basis. Reservations will be taken at four weeks.
As always, Bargewell is a no-kill shelter, and we need your help to feed and tend to our expanding family. Donations are accepted during business hours. Please call after hours for veterinary emergencies only. Thank you for your time.
[Percy pipes up again.] Bring apples!

[Truth be told, Hannibal would be open twenty-four hours a day if he had the energy. The animals are better company than most humans, now that he can speak their language. Although at times, it gets to be overwhelming.]
[He wanders through the shelter/boarding aisles, greeting each beast in turn as he feeds them, changes their water and checks the condition of their cages. Everyone has an opinion today. The hedgehogs want more toys, the prissy silver Persian he is boarding is demanding more tuna even though it isn't good to give cats as a staple, and the dogs. Oh Lord, the dogs.]
Lol oops I pooped my crate again....
Hey! Hey! You! Play? Play? C'mon, let us out in the backyard!
When's Mom coming back?
These stitches ITCH! I want to lick them. DAMN YOU CONE OF SHAME, DAMN YOU!
OH MY GOD KIBBLE YOU ARE THE BEST EVER
What the Hell is that thing on your shoulder? Clearly it is unnatural. I must bark at it!
[He sighs and whistles to get their attention.]
All right, all right you lot, finish your kibble and I'll let you out.
[The bell on the front door chimes, and he turns to go attend to a potential customer. Sick pets and potential adopters wait for no man.]
