Oh, I'm so glad to hear she's feeling better. After my cat's initial reaction to the ruff (he jumped around madly trying to get it off, he was like a mountain lion on PCP) he proceeded to completely ignore it. I was actually concerned because he did not let it stop him from making these really high jumps up and down from rather precarious perches and I was afraid he'd break his neck with that thing on (not to mention rip out his stitches) but I couldn't stop him unless i wanted to keep him locked in the bathroom. (which I did not)
