This Is Not Funny!
It is of the utmost importance to keep an animal from scratching or licking any surgical sites whenever that animal is going to be undergoing a surgical procedure. Animal saliva can harbor dangerous pathogens that can cause infection, and scratching or biting can cause stitches to pop or reopen wounds, respectively.
Even though surgical cones are the standard method for keeping animals away from wounds that are healing, sometimes medical professionals have no choice but to improvise. The owner of this cat was the one who provided us with this hilarious demonstration of animal improvisation. The funny thing is that the cat’s plate or cone says “#currentmood,” which leads us to believe that it is most likely not a happy mood.
