It's true. Denali isn't a happy boy right now. We took him to the vet on Tuesday to get fixed and they've given him the biggest cone known to man. Seriously, the thing is massive.

The poor guy is so traumatized by it. He keeps walking into walls, doors and it even gets caught on the ground when he's wearing it. It doesn't help that the pain medication the vet gave us makes him really drowsy (his eyes glaze over a little when we give it to him before bed) which only causes him more trouble. What he doesn't realize is that he's lucky someone's home all the time to watch him so he doesn't have to wear the bloody thing more often. Still, he's so sad when he's wearing it. He mopes, he cries, he shifts constantly because it's uncomfortable for him to sleep with it.

This is the poor sweetie with his cone on before bed the other night:



Doesn't he just look so sad? I feel for him. I really do. Thankfully he only has to wear it for 10 days (or nights as is the case).

T-8 days.
