I don't really remember how we controlled her! I think I spent more time down on the floor with her so she wouldn't want to come up on the sofa. She doesn't really come on the bed unless one of us is there so I probably just put her up and down as I anticipated her desires. Tried to keep playing lower key....and kept an eye on her sutures. Not sure what they used. I know they were dissolvable and some of them took a long time to go completely away. I think they glued it too.
I suggest keeping doors closed to rooms where she likes to do more running and jumping. Maybe I used the baby gate to confine her more (like before we trusted her not to potty in the house). Block off the stairs if you can, but like I said, she only goes up there if we are there so I could carry her up.
I just know she slept the whole day of the surgery, slept late and was groggy part of the second, then she thought she was fine!
I dread the day she ever needs any other surgery. SHe still gets the zoomies from time to time where she will race around the house like she's on fire! |
