Day 1: The Big Event
Alright, so your furbaby's just had their surgery. They're probably feeling a bit groggy, like they've just woken up from a really long nap. The incision site? It's gonna look a bit red and swollen, kinda like a tiny, angry volcano. But don't worry, that's totally normal!
Why the cone of shame?

Day 2: The Swelling Party
Today, the incision site might look like it's having a party. It's gonna be all puffed up, like a tiny, fleshy balloon. But hey, that's just the body's way of saying, "I'm working hard to heal!"
Your pup might be a bit more active today, but remember, they're still healing. It's like they're trying to run a marathon after a big feast - not the best idea, right?
Day 3: The Drip Drip Drops
You might see some clear or bloody discharge from the incision today. It's like a tiny, leaky faucet. Don't freak out, though! This is just the body's way of cleaning out the area. Just keep it clean and dry, like a tiny, fleshy beach.
