He is a trooper, but I am trying to do what is best and he is TRYING to kill me..lol!!

How's Cheri??....ready to reek Havoc with Maximus...lol, I bet 4 can't come quick enough!!!!

I'm starting to think his undies SHOULD say 'Little Stud'....

It sounds like he's got all the moves poor baby !

Your baby might be having some pain and itching. Get the Tea Tree Oil from the health food store and use a Q-tip to put a wee strip down each side of the incision BUT NOT TOUCHING THE INCISION! He will not like the taste and it is mildly antiseptic so it helps. IF,and this ia a big IF, you think he is hurting or itching a little bit, buy OraJel Max. strength. It has 20% benzocaine and will numb the incision. I don't wanna hear anybody laughing here and saying "Whassamattau? Don't you know that is for the GUMS!?" Seriously, I use it for More things that I can list. I always have some of it in the frig. Also, Aloe Jel with benzocaine..it does not have as much numbing med in it..

Thank you...my bf said that he is not appreciating the diapers much and scraping his body along the floor so I have a vitamin shoppe down the block so I will get the tree oil and the Orajel...thanks for the advice, as usual you are VERY wise!!!

I agree with Julz. Unless he is pulling out the stitches, I don't think you have to watch him all the time. When you're resting try to sit someplace where he'll relax next to you. I even sat on the floor a few times. Just your presence will calm him. How many days till he gets the stitches out? I think I'd get a onesie to put on him. And I know this sounds awful but we took the stupid e-collar off after about 4 days. It was driving Bo crazy. Hang in there, you'll get through it.

Ok, I want to re-open this thread! I need advice! Copper is getting neutered tomorrow!!!!! And this thread is scaring me to death! I talked the vet into letting me bring Copper home tomorrow night, but now I am afraid to trust him overnight with the stitches. HELP!!!

Don't worry...I don't think this story was the norm. I had very little problem wih Buddha but a bellyband works well. The e-collar is so depressing imo. Good luck.
