... its amazing what your imagination can come up with.
Our two littlest girls got fixed yesterday. We wanted to wait until they were about 1 and so at 1 year and 1 month, we had them fixed.
Both did extremely well, and we are very pleased with how well the surgeries went. Both were dazed and sleepy, but were fine and both got plenty of rest.
When they first came home, we had no issues with them biting at their stitches. Fancy (the brown tabby) loves to literally bite her nails ... (grab and pull) which i find to the oddest of hobbies, but o well. Lace on the other hand bathes herself once in a while and that is the extent of teeth/tongue to fur.
The girls were sequestered in our room while we kept Kaylee out in the family room so she doesn't play to hard with them. I walked in and found Fance literally RIPPING her stitches out of her belly. :uhoh2: ... I picked her up and examined closely and luckily the stitches were still there but she started to bleed pretty bad ... :darn: ...
Once i picked her up and got her to stop, mom comes to the rescue and we use some of Kaylee's bitter apple biting spray (ment for biting issues, hot spots, etc..) on Fancy's belly to see if she will stop. Didn't work. (Luckily it works on Kaylee) Because the bitter apple has a good amount of alcohol in it, it actually disinfected and help stop the bleeding pretty quickly. Once we figured out that, that wouldn't work, I looked at the clock and it was about 9pm and I figured there was no way to get to petco in time to get a plastic "no bite" collar.
So, i start my research ... after some Cardboard, Tape, and a couple staples ... this is what I came up with :nod:
