He's doing really well thanks. Not even trying to get to his wound, not that he can anyway. Begging for food the whole time and tried to drag me to the park for a walk earlier. He tried to get the neighbours dog to play with him earlier when they met on the stairs on the way to a toilet break. Clearly he's feeling alright.
The vet warned us that the drain will be, well, draining and to not be freaked out by the amount of liquid unless it suddenly starts smelling bad. Currently odourless.
He's got Metacam for pain relief. He hasn't had a vomiting problem from it before but will keep your heads up in mind.

How's he doing?
Re. painkillers - if he's on Metacam, watch out for vomitting and, if you have to take him off, keep an eye on him going for the stitches when they irritate. If he's on Onsior, make sure he has lots of water.
