Dudley needs help

**animal_rescue** · 07-06-2006, 04:17 PM

Dudley just got neutered on Monday. He has pain medicine but he's not leaving the area alone. So today my friend brought back the cone collar she borrowed from me. I put it on him and he seems to be doing ok(aside from a few pathetic attempts to get off the couch). But now he's spazzing out because he realized he couldn't lick himself. What do you thinks is bothering him so much that he can't lick himself? I feel bad, he turns around and then kind of goes in a circle trying to escape the cone.

Actually I figured it out. He rolled over and I saw that his stitches were gone and there's a hole there. It's infected too.

He's going to the vet first thing tomorrow morning!

long story short, we're not "allowed" to go there because we go to the vet we do now. Basically the 24 hour vet is a money grabber and is mad our vet is cheap so he refuses from anyone that goes to our vet.

Same thing happened to Sammy. (the spazzing part)

That is horriable.

Get Well Dudley.

that's so dumb! you'd think that if the vet really cared he'd offer care to all animals. no matter who their normal vet is.
