It's off him now, and he went straight to the area to lick it.
It's horribly swollen, but already his balls are smaller.
He still vocally, agressively hates me, so he's fine.
I had to give him one benadryl just now, in addition to his pain tablet about an hour ago, so it won't itch.
They pull out most of their stitches. Wickett had only one left in.
And his testicles are so much smaller, and he's much younger and sillier. He's spent the past couple days playing Dixie and trying to catch his tail - he hasn't succeeded yet, and I couldn't get a camera, but Becky had the camera with her. He was so cute and I couldn't get video or picture.
Mikey thinks that when his cone hits something - the truck, the desk, a chair, the couch, the wall - he assumes he's stuck and needs rescuing.
About ableist language on my blog to any new readers - there is going to be some on old posts (pre November '09, I'd say roughly).
I'm not necessarily proud, but I'm not going to go back and edit the posts to clear them up, even though I want to and go look, I've been a good little activist all along!
But that's a lie and it's disingenuous. It's also a disservice to the few people who do read the posts.
On a personal note, it's a disservice to me. I can go look at my posts from 2008 and compare them to ones in 2010 and see how I've grown as a writer and as a human being. It's nice to see how far we've come in life, you know?
I am truly sorry if anything here hurts somebody, and even if it's on a post from 2006, do not feel shy to tell me - e-mail me at otrumpets at yahoo dot com or comment. (I get a notification with every comment, so if you do comment on an old one, I'll know and reply.)

This is a good place to start. It's an ongoing series.
The posts are "101" so feel free to ask questions, as long as they're not "FREE SPEECH!!!!" or "Why does this matter?"

Poor Mikey. What an indignity. :(
He still looks adorable. :)
