My baby just had surgery and they put that God awful plastic cone on her. I asked if they had the "donut" type which they didn't, but a tech that works there told me they sell them at Petsmart. I got one and it was great. The only problem with them is. Since you inflate them (like blowing up an inner tube) that little doo hickey you blow into pushes in, but enough sticks up. The thing is attached around the neck and secured with velcro. If you put it on so the blower up thing is underneath (seemed logical) well, its not that hard for her to rip off the velcro!! I opted to live it with velcro down. She did deflate the donut during the day, but it still managed to serve the purpose. She couldn't reach her surgical site. I didn't know about the onsie at the time. But she is a chewer (teething big time) so, I still wonder if she would just have chewed the onsie off too. But you can start there. I don't think the donut was that costly, but I honestly don't remember what I paid for it. |
