Cricket will celebrate National Pet Day after her nap but before her next nap.

It’s Cricket computer time!
Meanwhile, a megalodexy lurks.

Cricket’s fur is filling in nicely and tomorrow will be four weeks since her surgeries. Cricket, you look marvelous!

Here’s Cricket the Brave chillin’ in a sunny spot by the couch yesterday. She’ll have a kinda funny looking chin and neck for a while as the shaved fur grows back in and you can see the purple sutures she sassily decided to keep but they will dissolve at some point. #cricketthebrave #cricket #calico #cat #cats #catsofmastodon

Frankencricket on March 2, 14 & 15 — The Missouri Valley Vet team does some fancy work! Surgical skills, a tailor’s precision and scouting knot knowhow for a little ol’ calico cat well on the mend. Thank you! #cricketthebrave #cricket #calico #cat #cats #catsofmastodon #stiches #sutures #catrepair

Cricket’s stitches came out at 9am. Here she is at 10am and 11am. #cricketthebrave #cricket #calico #cat #cats #catsofmastodon

Cone is off. Most stitches are out. And for another first, Cricket didn’t barf in the carrier during the drive to or fro. A couple stitches were left in the mouth that will dissolve on their own (her decision). And, we’re home!

On the morning Cricket gets her stitches removed, while still in her cone, it appears she managed to get some chin stitches undone.
I think things are ok aside from the little bit of dangling sutures.
This places her abilities somewhere between Harry Houdini and Dan Aykroyd’s “The Couch Trip” character, John Burns, who, while wearing a straight jacket, managed to unlid a candy jar and unwrap a piece of candy.

“It’s called FASHION! Look it up.”
If all goes according to plan, Cricket’s cone will be off and stitches removed tomorrow morning. Now taking bets on what she’ll scratch and/or clean first. #cricketthebrave #cricket #calico #coneofshame #cat #cats #catsofmastodon

Cricket the Brave goes to the vet Wednesday at 9am to have her side and chin stitches removed. Yay! #cricketthebrave #cricket #calico #cat #cats #catsofmastodon

Cricket Cone Day 8: Thursday Night — I’m relatively confident I dusted the coffee table just last week. #cricketthebrave #cricket #calico #cat #cats #catsofmastodon

How do you keep this dang e-collar cone clean when Cricket uses it as a dry food shovel and a water bowl submersible? Also, she hopped up on the couch for a bit of human pillow time here, which was nice. #cricketthebrave #cricket #calico #cat #cats #catsofmastodon

Friday Morning: One of the two reasons why Frankencricket is wearing the cone right now. Also, that’s what calico cats look like under their fur, but usually without the stitches. #cricketthebrave #cricket #calico #cat #cats #catsofmastodon

I love it when one of my schemes works. Two of them, actually. The regular food bowls were not working for the coned Cricket, but she figured out how to eat from a lipped side plate and also from this small, elevated and angled bowl I picked up after work tonight. #cat #cats #catsofmastodon #calico #cricket #cricketthebrave
