Silly Sam

After some deliberation and a discussion with his former foster Mum I decided to have Sam the spiny neutered to give him a chance of living with my three girls. He went in for the operation on Monday and thankfully all went well. He did however decide he was NOT having stitches in and in the time between coming round and me collecting him he’d removed them and not one but two lots of surgical glue!!! The very idea made me feel ever-so-slightly queasy I can tell you but after the vet decided there was no point reglueing him yet again and that he would be best left to heal naturally he’s left his wounds alone completely and has spent the last two evenings running in his wheel as per normal. Having just got in from his post op check up this afternoon everyone concerned is happy that the op sites are clean and dry and will close up perfectly on their own so it’s not a problem but still, silly Sammy boy!
