A Very Bad Day

Dear Poppy,
I’m sorry. I really am. But you’ll need to keep that thing on for a while.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Poppy,
I know you are unhappy, baby. Can you try to walk now?
Love, Carolyn
Dear Poppy,
Maybe start with standing up.
Love, Carolyn

Dear Poppy,
I know it’s hard, sweetie. Let’s give it another try. First stand up. There is nothing wrong with your legs. Then we’ll walk you over to your dinner.
Love, Carolyn
Der Momf,
No.

Dear Poppy,
Once you get used to the cone, you’ll get around just fine. But we have to leave it on for a couple of weeks. The vet doesn’t want you to lick yourself while the abscess is healing.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Poppy,
Okay. I got you on your feet! How’s that?
Love, Carolyn
Derrr Momf,

Dear Poppy,
Lets try walking! But lift your head. When your head droops you are more likely to bang into things. Okay?
Love, Carolyn
Der Mom,
No.
Poppy
Dear Poppy,
In a few days you’ll be so used to the cone you’ll forget you are wearing it!
Love, Carolyn
Dear Momf

Oh Dear! POOR POPPY!!! We are all so sorry that you have a big ouchie! We are crossing all paws that you can get rid of that awful cone soon.
Woofs,
Ollie (and the rest of The Gang)
oh POPPY ! what happened ? We are glad you will be better – it just takes so long to heal, Your Mama loves you and will help you as much as she can ! We are sending Power of the Paw and purrayers.
Ah the cone of shame, our small ones have their own, just in case. When they see it I can tell it upsets them.
More importantly how can you manage to work with this yourself? I just imagine myself in their place. ( much laughter here)
OMG, what abscess? What happened to poor Poppy? Poor little doggie. I’m so sorry. Cones are the WORST for them to put up with, but so necessary…xo
Poor Poppy! of all the indignities put upon our beloved animals. the dreaded cone is the worst.I hope you feel better soon
