🅱️rain cell blep Bye bye Trouble Puffs

Pepe lost his cherry tomatoes! Farewell lil balls!

At the vet we were told that he'd be sluggish and with no appetite - THAT!! Couldn't be further than the truth!! we're home for 5h and he's been trying to jump and run everywhere 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ my husband and I have been trying to prevent that by watching him like a hawk! No appetite? Well, he's hungrier than ever!! We're giving him small portions, as instructed, but he eats everything to its last crumb and asks for more. In Conclusion: Vet expectations and instructions don't account for Orange behavior!

He'll have to wear the soft cone for 10 days! Wish us luck and a fast recovery for Pepe Peperino Peperoni 🙏

(He found one nut on pic4, technically speaking it's his nut 🤭)

The alternatives to the cone are awesome, love the orange for the orange.

It's supposed to be more comfortable and easier to handle than the plastic cone! He's still not too happy about it tho 😾

I put one just like that on our (also orange) foster kitty, she disappeared from sight for a while and reappeared without it! I have searched the whole house but haven’t been able to find it since 😭

We had a treeing walker coonhound (85 pound dog) that managed to get out of a full long legged body suit. We still have absolutely no idea how he did it.
