Our old cat used to sleep in bureau drawers if you left them open.<BR/><BR/>Diva is doing fine with the collar now that it isn't quite as big as the first one they had given her, which she really hated. She's so good about it. We take it off for her to eat and then she just lets you put it right back on without a single protest.Mauigirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15529827915262851910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-83554605292178631952007-07-16T18:00:00.000-04:002007-07-16T18:00:00.000-04:00As I start to write, Margarida our resident super-...As I start to write, Margarida our resident super-cat has just come out of the closet...well, my office chest of drawers to be exact. It's amzing how she opens the door, walks in, hides and gets forgotten about, cos she falls asleep in there.<BR/>So, I remembered one of our dogs back in London who was awarded that protective collar while being treated for an ear infection. Elizabethan, precisely as you describe it. It only just occurred to me that the 16th-century fashion victims were amazingly prophetic when they named that thing a "ruff".Icarushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08516491146437398690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-31591559185628641822007-07-16T12:30:00.000-04:002007-07-16T12:30:00.000-04:00Oh yes I know the innocent licking move very well....Oh yes I know the innocent licking move very well.

It helps her sleep too!<BR/><BR/>Larry, you're right, this time they put in umpteen staples. But it seems to be healing up nicely now that she is not licking at it.<BR/><BR/>Tomcat, you're right, these little trips don't come cheap! Let's hope this is it for awhile!Mauigirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15529827915262851910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-47178070228312820452007-07-15T17:32:00.000-04:002007-07-15T17:32:00.000-04:00Mauigirl, you have to expect such trouble from daw...Mauigirl, you have to expect such trouble from dawgs.

One was a cancerous bump and the second another bump that thankfully was not cancerous. The second set of stitches came out 2 weeks ago. <BR/><BR/>He scratched so much while his stitches were healing, that the skin got very hard. Our vet put him on <B>Prednisone</B> so he wouldn't be so itchy and it did the trick. The thing is, since the prescription ran out he is scratching again so I have to get more.<BR/><BR/>Other than that, he is doing fine and looks forward to his daily one mile hike in the rainforest around our house.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-60358033856139681852007-07-15T00:30:00.000-04:002007-07-15T00:30:00.000-04:00So true!
