And so I've sent Boston for neuter today, and he came back, already eating, pooping, peeing and drinking as per normal! :)

I hate the vet for putting an E-collar or whatever you call it on him :)>>> Boston just look so stressed from it and the moment I came home I removed it, he's much better from this.

Eating his fresh vegetables now, bless him xoxo

This is him when he's 2 months old with his still intacted "mangoolies".
I'm so showing this to him when he's better :))mallethead
 
Best of luck for a quick recovery! It would be good if Boston was kept in a small cage for the first two days in order to keep him quiet and the wound healing. check the sutures in case he is gnawing on them.
 
keep checking for lumps down there, our poor guy boris ended up with a huge abscess weeks after his op :0 he had to go to rescue for treatment as we couldnt get him to the vets in time. it was shocking how fast it came up and so long after the op.

loving that photo btw :)
 
Lord Bernie came back from his op and was eating, drinking and full of himself :o

I did, as Wiebke suggested, and kept him in a small hutch for a couple of days and checked him regularly (more than I would care to admit :) )

He was fine and running around the pen as normal 3 days later and no problems at all.

Hoping for just as quick a recovery for your Boris.
 
Thanks people! He's in the upper level of my cage right now sealed off from the girls. It's smallish so he won't get to move around too much :) I'm applying Baneocin, a anti-infection powder on his no-more-mangoolies-bottom.
 
An e collar. Like the ones they put on dogs so they don't chew on their wounds?

If so. Even though it would stress him out. You got to admit it must have been at least a little cute.

Nope, I don't think it was cute at all :(

Good luck little Boston whee hope you heal up well, then before you know it you'll be with your lady friends x)x)
 
Glad to hear he's doing well! That's amaing that he dealt with it so well...if either of my piggies were boys they probably would have gone into a stage of extreme grumpiness. mallethead

Get well, Boston! xx>>>
