since the removal of said stitch, jessie has also managed to tug at the others ...although not get them out, I rang the vet as my efforts at cleaning the wound (cos it was weeping slightly) didn't seem enough to me, he assures me that even though jessie has torn her stitch holes somewhat, the wounds is still closed and it will settle.. :- I have started to give the arnica again Jane, as its getting inflamed slightly, I hope this is ok, and cleanin it as you mentioned before, but she isn't impressed...I can tell ya
is there anything else I can try??? shes still wearing the baby vests, cos thats the only way I can keep her away, and it seems she only got rattled by stitches when they started to heal and get itchy......help!
