    He still wears the jacket at night or when I can't watch him. He's been really good about leaving the stitches alone though.

    I'm sorry I was unable to respond to your other thread but he's been in my thoughts. Glad to hear he's doing so well. I hope he stays calm enough that he doesn't re-injure himself. lol

    Thanks, he was back at the vet yesterday. I thought he had an infection, but my vet assures me it's just a normal collection of post-surgical fluids. Apparently it would be reabsorbed, but if not, he would need a drain put in. Anvik decided to take care of it himself yesterday. He partially popped a stitch, nothing major, just a tiny hole. All the fluid drained on it's own! I think he did it on purpose as he hasn't touched the stitches since! I'm grateful to him for that actually--means he avoids more surgery and I don't have to flush a drain for a week! I hate wound drains!

    Has Anvik enrolled in Pre-Med?

    And have you PAID for Him - yet?

    Heck - he's "saving" you money left & right ...
    be a shame if the Re-Po guy showed up and wanted him back.

    Watch out if you spot him taking a beer out of the fridge!
