My cat is recovering from spaying surgery, and is wearing an econe ( aka the cone of shame). She's doing okay in it (eating drinking, and using the litterbox all without major incident), but clearly hates it with a firey passion. What I noticed is how she's calmer in the cone (though some of that is also her pain meds, it's not just them, because it took a while to figure out how to keep the cone on her (though she's slipped it once so far since then), and she's definitely calmer be-coned.) I also noticed that her habit of biting feet is essentially impossible, so between her being sweet and cuddly, and lack of biting, my poor beconed kitten is (except for her tendancy to be super messy eating in her cone), really way easier to manage.
I actually may kind of miss the cone to remove it, at this rate, although I have my fingers crossed that 2 weeks unable to bite may finally cure her of that habit...
