As you might remember, gentle reader, my cat was recently fitted with a Edwardian collar after surgery. He spent a couple days sequestered in my office and went a little stir crazy, so we let him out and took off the collar since he wasn’t paying attention to the stitches.
Well, with the collar off, he found them and irritated his surgery site, so he’s back in the cone of shame.
Now, just as a reminder, we call him by many appellations now, but remember, he’s still the Big Bopper. Do not confuse him for someone else.
The Real Thing:
The Big Bopper
Not to be confused with:
Ming the Merciless
A Triceratops
“Weird Al” Yankovic
in the “Dare to be Stupid” video
Marvel Villain Doctor Bong
Although, to be honest, when he scratches the cone in the bed in the middle of the night, he sounds like Doctor Bong.
He gets the stitches out in a couple of days, at which point we will have to go back to our regularly scripted humor at his expense.
