Our vet didn't mind leaving Molly collarless when she was fixed because of that. I think too that licking isn't so much the issue as picking at any stitches if they are external. Anyhow I hope she gets well soon! linda marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14201901762476827737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8284944855633609232.post-50239730269222027272014-04-17T20:58:34.095+10:002014-04-17T20:58:34.095+10:00Life tends to do that!

That's what makes it look so bad. She's doing a little better, but we had to relent and remove her collar. She's licked her wounds a few times which is of concern. But she was so unhappy with the collar (and I'm talking feral and getting her claws stuck in it) that we thought it best to remove. We're taking our chances she won't lick the wounds continually.<br /><br />She's returning to the vets in a few days. We hope they won't put the collar back on her again. I'd ask for sedatives if that were the case, as it was too upsetting for her to wear. She scratched us, as we tried to free her stuck paw today. Muesli is a great cat, except when she's confused and in pain.<br /><br />I also wondered if it was the moon too, lol. Not that I blame the moon. If it can effect the tides and human's are made of a lot of water though, it stands to reason it can make for some interesting side-effects. Maybe we'll never know?<br /><br />Sorry for your past weekend, I really hope this approaching Easter weekend, fairs better for you too. :)Chris https://www.blogger.com/profile/13715819899708384147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8284944855633609232.post-88081475920556629362014-04-17T00:19:32.763+10:002014-04-17T00:19:32.763+10:00Get well little Muesli!

I think there was some crazy moon action going on starting on our Friday. We had the weekend from hades thanks to an unwanted guest. Its a long story.<br />But as they say, "Better luck next time" (Next weekend that Dave has off, Sarah is home and there is nothing to do but chill out that is.)linda marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14201901762476827737noreply@blogger.com
