Yogi was just a little sleepy & clingy that first night. His Poppa made him some yummy oatmeal to eat when we got home and he spent a lot of time just cuddling and sleeping that night. The next day he was all vim and vigor, like nothing had happened to him at all. I was lucky, he didn't really mess with this incision but baby onesies work well to keep them from licking. Just keep an eye on the area to be sure it doesn't get red and infected. No baths until after the stitches come out. Yogi LOVED that part.
