I've done this for the most part for 2 consecutive days and have kept it on while Max sleeps through the night. This morning they are 1/2 up! They stick straight out to the sides or straight forward, but they aren't as floppy as they have been. I think I'll leave the tape off for today and see what happens. He seems to be carrying them differently, as if to know they now exist. Keep in mind that they will try very hard to scratch the tape off. You will probably have to reapply often.
I also find it easiest to tape while sleeping. It may not be the best idea because then he won't get used to me with other grooming methods, but it works for now. |
you can also tape them unfolded. And you can leave it on for 3 days, then take it off for a day or two, if they start to droop again, retape them. The
more you do it the less they fight you.
