Milo's second day at home
Milo kept waking us up all night long because he is more mobile and was walking around our small apartment. He had a walk outside at 4 AM.
When I woke up this morning, there were some blood spots on our bedside mat. I believe the blood came from the left leg. He had a growth on the left leg which was removed during the amputation of the right leg. He started to lick that spot and the stitches came off.
He has been very good at not licking the main (big) incision, but part of the area seems swollen so I will have to put on the ice pathces more often today.
Milo had a regular breakfast today (dry food), because he needs to be in a diet. I don't want him to start the diet right away because he is still in recovery, but his weight is making it difficult for him to get around.
He attempted again to pee on 2 legs, and this time he was able to hold himself for a few seconds, before putting the 3rd leg down.
