Unless the Vet is going to offer the extra pair of hands for FREE -
I'd scout the neighborhood for a Nurse, Physical Therapist, Dental Assistant, Dog/Kat Lover; heck - even a Retired Quack ~
All you need is another Set of Hands attached to a somewhat Functional Brain!

Trim Bassett's KLAWZ; equip your New Assistant Wrapper with a pair of Leather Gloves - and Wrap Away!



Now THAT's not fair!!

*Phunnie* as the Walk & Bump & Stumble routine may be...
TRY not to laff!!
You don't want to bruise her ego!

Probably one of the *phunniest* stunts Boots da Kat pulled during his post-operative / ConeHead daze - was the Kliner Chair Vault...

Boots had *heard* Ice Creme being dished up and was circling the chair plotting a method of mounting the arm rest to *dip a paw* as is his custom... The Dawgz were on Full Alert sitting on my feet... All Three *lissnin* for the tell-tail *clink* of Spoon on ALMOST Empty Ice Creme Bowl...

Boots could wait no longer ~
A mighty *LEAP* to the arm rest...
And the Cone caught the edge of the chair .
I swear he did a Purfikt Back Flip and
Landed - Cone FLAT Down on the floor -
then did a Head Stand ON The CONE for at least 10 seconds ~
before falling onto his back!

I waited (holding my breath - did he *break* anything??) until he scrambled onto his feet; shook head, body, AND Cone rather forcefully; and dashed off to the privacy of the bathroom falling wadur klozit for a good pout...

The Dawgs stared at me with alook that said "Did he just DO THAT!?"

Hate to admit it - but I almost died *laffin*!

And poor Boots got ALL of the ice creme "soup" that was in the bowl (when his pride let him return).

Enjoy the Cone Humor - but try to Laff Quietly!

The less functional the better - at least then they will be brave enough to hold Bassett's head!

I don't think my vet will charge me, especailly since I am using my own products. I have all the gauze/tape/etc that I need. I'm also trying to buy some of my own vet wrap (there is a thread in General called "Is this website reliable?" please check it out if you have time) so I don't have to use the vet's stuff.


And I try to laugh quietly.. I even talk on the phone and pretend to have heard a funny joke.. I don't think she's falling for it though!

[NoahsMommy]

A cone too? Please allow me to correct myself....the tube top is chic in CA....but with the cone, she's a runway model in Paris!!!

You may do a LOT better asking Your Vet to sell you a roll or two!

After you add shipping & handling costs to an i-net mail order - I'd bet your Vet will sell it to you either cheaper or Match The Price. ASK!

And Boots never fell for the *hidden laff* either!
I caught MANY an Icy Glare from an embarrassed ( ) Kat!

He was really GOOD at managing the lower front edge of the Cone...
His *problem* was the UPPER edge and the SIDES of the Cone!

He made some absolutely **SPECTACULAR** collisions with things he was trying to run past or around...
and he NEVER figured out how to get *under* overhead obstructions!

Even the Dawgs seemed to *wince* when he'd have a Cone *pile up*!

[krazyaboutkatz]

I'm sorry that Bassett has to wear a cone but I know it's for her own good. She sure looks great in purple though. I sure hope that her burns heal quickly.

[Vio&Juni]

Basset looks very stylish with purple

Phred, LOL

[Barbara]

I am sorry Bassett that you have to wear that cone now. The tubetop however was cool -very elegant on your blue-apricot fur

We know you'll get rid of that cone in no time

[ramanth]

Awwww...she looks so adorable in her purple top and cone.

Give her a kiss for me.

[gini]

Aww, Bassett, there just doesn't seem to be any end to the humiliations does there.

But you are such a beautiful cat that we want everything to heal nicely and quickly get you back to your magnificent self.

[HayleyRosie]

Poor little Bassett. Hayley hated the cone and I know Bassett must hate it as well. The purple tube top don't look too bad. I hope it don't bother her too much. Keep us posted.

[Nomilynn]

Bassett's tube top went from purple to yellow today. I must say she looks very summery

She's at the vet for boarding now. She is NOT happy. Also, I ordered two rolls of vetrap and they are also ordering me a product that disolves the sticky off the medical tape, so I don't have to rip her fur ( OUCHIE! ) I'll be picking her up tomorrow, so I'll let you know how she did overnight

[rg_girlca]

Awwww poor dear Bassett. You must be so unhappy right now with all that you have been through and still having to go through. Don't worry sweetie, in no time at all when all this is over and all your boo-boo's are healed, you and your meowmie will be singing, "I'm The Happiest Girl In The Whole U.S.A. and Canada too."

[carole]

Lexie just wanted to say to Bassett, she knows all too well what it is like wearing those silly cone's.
She say's she preferred to sit on the tables once it was on, it seemed more comforting for some reason, something she does not do normally.
And BTW she also say's you are a fashion statement, my cone was plain clear plastic, no pretty colours.
Lexie sends nose kisses to Bassett, and wants her to know, it is not too bad wearing the cone, and if you are real good girl, mummy will take it off for a while, mind you when mine was off I used to take advantage of it and have a real good pull and bite at my tail.

[Nomilynn]

Bassett says "Hey Lexie.. I'm trying to convince my mom to take it off for a bit.. but she gets mad when I pull at my tube top.. well GEESH. If I'm going to be stylish it HAS to be in place. Plus, Tilly keeps sneaking up behind me and poking me.. and I get REALLY mad because I can't see!! I feel like I have blinders on! If only my mom would just take the darn thing off!!"

Bassett did fine at the vet. They didn't change her bandage because they said it was sitting nicely, but right now it's starting to show a bit of her bigger scab so I will be changing it later. Poor baby.. I hope these scabs heal faster than what the vet predicted (which was a MONTH!!!!!)

I'll keep ya posted
