(pardon the glare in his eye...the light is reflecting off of his cone-head).poor albie! over the last day or so, he's been licking his incision more than i was comfortable with...the last straw was last night when he was whimpering because he was trying to chew the incision. it's obviously itchy...and it's healing well, but licking and biting are bad for business. so i called his vet, and they said he needed a cone.
ahhhh! not the dreaded cone-head!
i'm pretty busy this week and didn't have time to drive all the way over to the beaches to pick up a cone, so we walked up to arthur and stella's vet this morning (st. clair vetrinary - hi dr. hannah!)
we bought albert his cone, and he is currently walking around the house trying to figure out a way to get it off. he looks sad...but he won't be hurting his incision, and hopefully we'll be able to take it off in a day or two once his healing is finished.

It could be the angle, but he looks like the cone is too big and weighting his head down.
it's just the angle - the vet sized it for him, and it fits very well. and it didn't take long for him to get used to it either!
