Better...

Whisky is adapting well now with his Elizabeth collar on. Initially on Tues after his surgery, he found it hard to lie down and sleep with the collar hence he ended up standing or siting while dozing over.

Mum had to 'teach' him how to lie down. He hates wearing it coz not only does it restricts his movements and sleeping habits, it stops him from scratching his ears. But the lil boy still sits down albeit sulky while mum puts on the collar for him.

We let him off without the collar during meal times and for a couple of hours to ease the tension/discomfort on his neck/head. You can see the immediate difference in mood. His lifted high up tail will do limp and down when the collar is put on and his eyes take on a sorrowful look. But no choice lah, it's for his own good. Am not risking him licking or biting the wounds when our eyes are off him or when we are snoozing in dreamland.

Now he does his best to lie down and sleep with the collar and no longer dozes off while he is standing or sitting. For the 1st time yday, I noticed his balls seems to shrunk in size and looked like dried prunes after the surgery. No longer the firm and 'juicy' ones before. :P

He is eating as per normal now and is a lot more livelier except we refuse to play catching with him for fear the vigourous movements will hurt the stitches...

Will be bringing him down for a review on Sunday and Saturday will be the last day the lil patient fella has to put on that hateful collar :)
