Well. So here’s the thing.

Gibson doesn’t like to wear things. And after several rounds of Mortal Kombat (and antibiotics for me and a tetnus shot tomorrow) we had to go back to the vet for the cone of shame.

    There are padded puffy alternatives to the cone. You might be able to overnight order one.

    Oh dear. Poor Gibson has had a day. If you're home and observing she might manage without the cone. In the past I've connected the cone to a separate collar to make it easier to get on and off too.

    The vet will call me tomorrow and we can see if I can take it off. I’m going to be out a lot of the week for interviews but I have to admit she accepted it a lot better than the suit.

    Any idea which bowl is best for water?
