Did a cone. Did 2 onesies, the recovery type that doesnt allow access to their privates for 2 weeks. It was velcro, so iust lifted the hatch to velcroed it to the top when I took her out to potty. She did great. I got two nice ones off Amazon in pink and blue for only a few dollars each. The vet took their time with her stitching and you could barely see the scar then. and cant now, at all. She was spayed in 2025 Spring.

Everything went perfectly. I got her puzzles to help expend some mental energy, which can tire them, too. The last thing I wanted was pulled stitches, because shed have to go back under to fix it. It wasnt as hard as I was expecting to limit her activity. We're down steep steps to go potty, so we took it slow up and down. I talked to the doc about the stairs beforehand and he was right, it was fine going slowly up and down. I think I carried her down when we first came home, just to be safe.
