thank you, the wound appears to be healing well. She's going for a check up tomorrow.

Yes indeed. ? She is all black and very shiney and smooth like a seal. And I am obsessed with all things Scottish! ?

Or if you prefer more traditional, the equally great Corries from about fifty years ago:

@FrayedBear both hauntingly lovely! Thank You! ?✌??

Thank You ?

I guess I didn’t make it clear- I reversed it so it wouldn’t be so invasive, and it worked for awhile, until she figured out how to get around it. Then I put it on the other way.

@DeeWoman Got it. Trying different methods. She will heal fine if it is not a carcinoma.

No , I am keeping her inside for now. She’s very young and healthy, just over a year old. The wound is looking better. ?

Thank you! I will try this!

@DeeWoman I've read about this in my FB cat group. Good results usually and way less shame.

Judging from my toddler granddaughter, I think infant sizes would be better. SamSam is 25 pounds, my cats are right at 10.

@HippieChick58 Yup I'd bring a tape measure (after measuring kitty).

@HippieChick58 I bought an infant size 6-9 months (only cost $1 !) , because Selkie is smallish, but it was too small for her. It was almost funny as she waddled away from me and couldn’t walk right in it. Wanting to laugh but feeling for the sweet kitty. It looks like it will work well in a larger size. ?
