| Post-neuter incision question... Oscar had his neuter and he was a cryptorchid neuter so he has two incisions. I dont want him wearing the 'lampshade', I've made some little underwear for him to cover the incisions and keep him from licking, but I do have to take them off so that he can do his business and just to let air get at them. I KNOW he's been sneaky and got some licking time in and I'm worried that the icisions will become infected... Does anyone have any suggestions to help speed up the healing process or prevent infection? Has anyone ever used a cream of any sort to help heal?

| you can clean the incision with peroxide. I also use neosporin to help in the healing on bites and such. they heal so fast and that stuff works wonders. also i have used a human baby onsie to keep them from licking. it is more comfy for them than the collar. I Hope he heals fast.
