There they are, just lion in the road.
In Tanzania do you drive on the left of the lion, or the right?
thatâs a lot of cat food
I can imagine the cat recreating the old joke of two people complaining about their food: the meal was bad, and there was so little of it.
Here are the three we took with us doing exactly what I did on our long weekend. Well, until my wife made me go for a 4 mile hike.
Red-bellied woodpecker. Havenât seen this guy on the feeder before
Small-downy woodpecker. A frequent visitor.
Her surgical stitches were removed, but she must wear the Starfleet swimsuit uniform for more time, as she can hurt herself as she does her toilet.
Oh no! Be careful, Ensign Redshirt!
I think sheâs engineering. So, no worries.
Your kitteh has been super photogenic and very patient through this whole thing, but I still canât help wondering why the surgery was recommended so late? My sweet girl had hers at about 3 weeks old and was released to us with surgical glue instead of stitches. No cone of shame, no jumpsuits, no problems. 
I mean, I got Dulce sterilized after she had her kittens and there was a short recovery time with no need for extra protection, even when the kittens nursed. Perhaps itâs a matter of surgical technique?
Yeah, thatâs also where Iâm coming from. My dearly departed floofy tuxedo cat had a litter at about 6 months and had surgery a day or two before being released to me with no more than âcheck the incision frequently for bleeding, puss or other signs of infectionâ. No big deal, she was unraveling my yarn stash all over the place a mere few weeks later.
I think stitch busting can be an issue for particularly active cats. Several of mine have had to wear a cone of shame, cape, or suit because they just would not leave the incision site alone. Even the one who was snipped very young
Thanks!
Not really⌠:^)) 
I think it was on time. She was found on the street and it took us a while to find a good vet to trust, give her all the vaccinations etc.As I found her in the rain on the street, very small and timid , I had no way of estimating her age. The doctor believes she is about 7, 8 months old. But I think she might actually be older than that.
Good! My cat is such a force of nature.
Maybe. The vet had to redo the stitches she loosened it. She said she had to the change the thread to another one.
Thatâs exactly what we had to face here at home.
The cat couldnât help but lick the scars. To make matters worse, we couldnât keep her quiet. She didnât stand still, she tried to run away, jump out the window and even got to the point of figuring out how to open the bedroom door. We locked the door, but the heat became unbearable, the room felt like a sauna⌠Fortunately my wife is quite ingenious and managed to leave a crack open with the help of a string. To prevent her from tearing the surgical stitches again, we even took apart our bed and glued the curtains to the wall.
Tonight I took her bathing suit off. The first thing the kitten did was lick her belly.
I think youâre onto something. My cats did pretty well, but they still wore their cone for about a week. Our doggo was was pretty good with her two knee surgeries, so we were able to remove her cone pretty much the next day.
However, my bossâs golden doodle stayed with us for four months and she WOULD NOT STOP LICKING HER PAW, especially at night. She licked one paw raw. We put the soft cone around her head at night and it worked like a charm.
