Confessions of Binx and Cone of Shame
So my furball is a snuggle bug and he literally kept putting my face or head to join him in this cone. So much so he climbed up my pillows to do so the other morning. Clearly he wanted me to be annoyed just as much as he has been lol
This wasn’t exactly ideal. So I found alternatives and he is much happier cone free. Luckily he likes clothes so this was an easy thing to get on him instead. Also believe it will help with the swelling.
I was so worried on Friday night at what seemed to be abnormal swelling and increased by morning , no I didn’t sleep I stayed up panicked he had ripped internal stitches somehow and was bleeding internally so I rushed him back to vet on Saturday after calling concerned if I should bring him in or not.
Inital notice 12 hours later
Since they hadn’t told me what was normal in healing process I was concerned and it felt like a balloon underneath. Turns out bladder swelling in healing is normal and that the stitches are healing wonderfully. At least the trip wasn’t pointless they had forgotten to give me his gabapentin when I had picked him up so I got that back at least. Which considering his last dose of the other pain med ran out that morning it was ideal timing. It’s better to have a false alarm then think he’s fine and actually not be at all right ?
Took the cone of shame off and he is rocking this suit by suitical it’s a post surgery recovery suit alternative to the cone of shame.
I had no problem getting it on, pricey a bit but worth it at this point what’s more $$ lol I had to measure him to pick the right size
He is the smallest size apparently kittens are his size aha. Forever my fur baby. It only came in one print so it wasn’t my first choice but it was the best designed one I found out there on amazon he wouldn’t easily get out of or irritate the stitches.
Day two of the outfit. Has him talking and waking me up insistent. Did get him to sleep in another two hours from when he wanted me to get up hah but I’m happy I got my cuddle bug chatterbox back. Now for that fur to grow back in .....
