How Audrey Relaxes

The vet clinic where Audrey works treats small animals only. There she handles cats, dogs, hedgehogs, snakes, bald eagles, gerbils, parrots, and turtles, but no livestock. This week, sandwiched between days at her job, she found a chance to shadow our farm vet, who doctors on big animals as well as pampered poodles. So Audrey got to view livestock from a veterinary perspective, extracting wolf teeth from a stallion, cleaning a cow's abscessed hoof, inspecting a hundred pigs for health and happiness.

When she finally got a breather from vet work, I found her thinking about something else you can do with pigs and cows.
