Surgery is stressful enough for your cat without the discomfort of a stiff plastic “cone of shame.” Fortunately, there are other options for a kitty recovering from surgery or being treated for a wound or skin condition, including soft collars, padded collars, and cat recovery suits. Consider all the options—and talk with your veterinarian—so you’ll be ready when your kitty comes home. When Your Cat Needs a Recovery Suit As always, talk with your veterinarian about the best way to protect your kitty during recovery. Recovery Suits for Cats When do you choose an E-collar and when do you go for a recovery suit? That’s based on the location of the injury or incision. To protect a cat’s face, you’ll want an E-collar. But if the wound or irritated area is on the kitty’s torso, the recovery suit might be the best choice. Delivery is on a selected date, you can choose a delivery day of your choice, up to 10 days in advance (Excluding next day delivery. Postcode restrictions apply) One tip offered by recovery suit manufacturers is to give your cat time to adjust. If your cat hasn’t worn a recovery suit, costume, or harness before, their first reaction might be to lay down and refuse to move. This seems to be instinctive. Most cats will soon get used to the recovery suit and resume moving around as usual—so don’t panic if your kitty’s first response is to hunker down and stay still. Suitical Recovery Suit for Cats
