|  Jackson's getting neutered tomorrow! Jackson's getting neutered tomorrow!  Ah, I'm nervous! I'm trying to act really calm and cool though because I'm sure he will be fine. And I don't want him to feel my vibes but I've been pretty good tonight. I will be very worried while he is in surgery though! Just needed to post... Also, had a question... is there anything I should put him in to make sure he doesn't lick the stitches? I know I could ask the vet tomorrow but just wanted to see on here. I don't want him wearing one of those cones, I don't even know if they still give those anymore. What should I be prepared for?

|  I was so nervous when Coco was fixed. They did give her a cone :0( I don't think the surgery is as complex on a male though. I'm not sure he will even have noticable stiches. I am just comparing to my male cat though. Don't worry too much. He will be fine  |

| Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member  | Good luck Jackson! he's gonna do great i know most people don't like cones but you need to remember that is the human's issue, not the dogs. teh dog is just like "wtf is on my head" for like a hot minute then sees a toy and forgets all about it. you can try putting little boys underwear on him tho, backwards to the tail goes through the hole thing, you know. lol

| Good idea with the boy underwear. My Coco didn't even bother the stitches. I was lucky. Maybe you will be lucky also. Just wait and see how he does. He will be very groggy for the rest of the day tomorrow, but by the next morning he should be his old self. Don't try to force water or food on him though. He might be a little nauseus from the anesthesia. I gave my Coco some water on a tea spoon. Just to wet his whistle. Coco, Pebbles and Trixie are sending a great big get better soon hug. I will keep ypur little boy in my prayers. I'm sure he will do fine...you not so much!! I know I was a nervous wreck. I must have called the vet 3 times. I just wanted to know when he was out of surgery and in recovery.  We are thinking of you little Jackson.

|  I'll have you and Jackson in my thoughts for tomorrow. He's going to do just fine!! Put a onsie on him backwards so that the snaps are on his back and his tail can stick out between the snaps.Just do it for a few days and if he doesn't try to lick @ the sutures then take it off. Hugs and Prayers for you both,    :goodluck Let us know how he does...

| Max is getting neurtered on Friday, he's almost 13 lbs and he is 5 months. I am a little scared to, only as far as care. He is a fairly active little boy, so if any one can tell me exactly how to handle him would be great. From what I've read I know he'll be fine...looks like we're in the same boat Brister. |

| He will do fine! Couver was fixed a few weeks ago, and he did great! He will be groggy for the day of the surgery, and most likely be back to himself by the next! Couver acted like nothing had changed the next day. He did try to lick his stitches a couple times, but we just corrected him... and he was fine! He didn't need a cone or panties, so we were lucky. Good luck Jackson!!

| Aww, Jackson. I'm saying prayers you'll be feeling better soon (and that you won't have to wear that cone)!

| We're adding our prayers for a easy surgery and quick recovery. Hot Rod really didn't bother his stitches much. He was out of it for about 3 days then he was rearing to go! lol. Good luck and don't worry, he'll be just fine.
