Quinn looks in good shape. Glad it all went well and he's completey over it.
How long did he have his lampshade on if you don't mind me asking? Ozzie is going in for her lipfold op on Tuesday so it was lovely to see a photo of Quinn. 
Unfortunately he had to have the cone on until his stitches were removed as he was trying to paw his mouth all the time and would have ripped the stitches. Operation was on the 20th December and stitches out on the 3rd January, in hindsight I should have cut the length off his ears as there was quite a lot of leakage coming from his wounds so he ended up in a bit of a mess with the cone i.e. his ears. I had to cut the length off once the cone was off completely.
He had a blip during the recovery time when he was put on a different set of antibiotics along with his original course, these made him very poorly and he had to stay at the vets - once they put him on fluids and took him off the other set of tabs he was fine again. This wasn't anything to do with the op - just a bad reaction to the tabs.
Seeing as he's never had anything like this done to him before, he was very very brave - he doesn't like being handled by strangers too much so it all went better than I thought.
Hope Ozzie's operation goes well - it's such a relief once the infection/ulcers/gaggy smell has gone
ETA - Not sure if Ozzie sleeps in a crate but the only problems I had was the lack of sleep, Quinn is crated normally at night but he couldn't fit in his crate with the extra large cone he had to wear - I would have bought a bigger crate in advance if I'd thought about it.
