It's kinda terrifying, if you ask me. It's on one of the walls in one of the buildings, and I'm amazed that Google searching for it actually worked. I don't know if I'd pay 80 dollars for that.
There's a Bird of Paradise (a flower, not a bird) in one of the gardens. They're really, really cool looking.
So the old Spay Waggin is on St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands, where you can not see the island of Trinidad unless there's a spacetime distortion of some sorts, in absolutely wretched condition according to Greg. Still with the Massachusetts phone number.
As on all small islands, St. Thomas has a cat problem. The Virgin Islands are actually quite despoiled and have been an ecological catastrophe for longer than most of us have been alive. Like, Europeans brought rats and then brought mongooses over to solve their rat problem but WHOOPS rats are active at night and mongooses are active by daylight and the mongooses just hunted the local birds and snakes instead. There are deer, but again, they were introduced. Bats are the only indigenous mammals.
Thee are trees called monkey no climbs but since there are no monkeys on the Virgin Islands.
Why, yes, there are vervet monkeys on several Caribbean monkeys (along with Cape Verde and Ascension Island) but they were introduced. They're African monkeys. A few searches tell me that all monkeys on the Caribbean islands went extinct. Most of them died in the Pleistocene, a few of them lasted until European settlement.
Also, New Bedford Public Access Television or whatever you are, dramatic music does not help during surgeries. Unfortunately, they didn't show the gory details.
-plasty doesn't show up often but when it does, it tends to be an episioplasty. Basically, reconstructing the outside genitals and removing the excess folds that only seem to get infected.
You can honestly stick a pulse-oximeter on a dog's penis sheath (called a prepuce or something) or up their butt. Not the best place to stick it but if you don't have hairless unpigmented skin. They work based on light.
And surgery is one time you want them to have wonky eyes.
It's really gross down there, by the way. Especially on intact males. And cats tend to get blackheads there.
Burning Question: If My Best Friend Is Invisible is set on another planet, WHAT'S WITH THE CATS?
