Update on baby Bentley. His incision is healing wonderfully. I think they used glue instead of stitches because I cannot see any stitches at all. Bentley has calmed down on the humping but he sometiems does it a few times about once a day.
We haven't had any problems with him licking or messing with the incision. I think he licks it just to clean it. He doesn't obsess about it.
So far the whole experience of him getting neutered was great! He is back to normal energy level and probably has even more energy than he did before getting snipped.
His appointment is Friday for recheck.
He is starting to bolt out the door even when not on leash. Dad routinely goes out to the patio to smoke a cigar and listen to his short wave radio, and apparently Bentley thought it'd be a good time to see if he could run outside offleash. Well dad was freaking out once he saw Bentley outside offleash. He yelled for me to get out there. I couldn't believe it was Bentley that bolted. Normally it would be one of our two cats that would do that.
Well I can't run around and catch him, I am justnot athletic enough. So I sat on the grass where he was running back and forth like a bat outta hell... He ran near me a few times and bolted the other way. Well he decided to run right next to me. Luckily I was able to grab him. Just the right timing.
Guess I've gotten better at my reflexes due to my big kitty who does the same thing. Haha!
I cought him! Yay! I didn't scold him, because he didn't know any better. He was just outside free!
I guess now it's time to start teaching him STAY. He sorta gets the jist of it like not to move if we are going to give him a treat... But he doesn't yet understand what it means in regards to staying there when we walk away or closer.
Ah the joys of parenthood. Hehehehe
