Tink just got spayed 9 days ago
I did not use an E-collar on her. I bought some baby Onsies, cut a hole for her tail and kept those on her. It kept her from her stitches without that terrible collar.
When she came home from the vet she was groggy and just wanted to sleep. By the next morning she was a little more perky but still on the quiet side. It can be hard to keep them calm while recovering. Just do the best you can and don't freak out over the occassional jump or running around
