The patient decided to rip her cone off at 3am. After several attempts at getting the collar back on I sedated her.

Rang the vet and they said keep her sedated the next few days.

Jesus Christ lol

She has a reputation at the vet clinic now hahaha

Edit: back we go to the vet for a better collar. I turned my back for 2 mins and caught her licking the stitches. And this is sedated AND on painkillers.

Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh lol
