Bunjee just got neutered yesterday. The surgery went really well and he's recovering at home.

I got both an ecollar and onesies just to see what'll work better for him. THe ecollar is completely useless. the one that fits around his neck doesn't extend out far enough to stop him from licking his stitches. the one that extends far enough is way too big around the neck. The onesies is working great! I'm just a little concerned that he'd poop in it.

He was starving when i brought him home so i started feeding him little bits of kibbles and water by hand. this morning i gave him his normal portion of 1/4 cup of kibbles and left water out for him to drink. He ate and drank as normal.

Now my concern is, except for the runny poop he had when he got home last night he hasn't pooped since. he's pee'd several times as normal tho. there was a few times where he's groan and growl and want to gnaw on his tail, but i take of his onesies to let him poop, he doesn't.

i'm a little concerned that he might be constipated. is it normal for him not to poop yet?
