Poor guy. Deff give the vets a call in the morning if hes not settled
But he dosent seem like a drama queen so something is bothering him. It might be hes a little doped up and just not liking the bandage

Not nice to see them like that tho hope he settles soon

Hope he's been okay over night. Cosmo did a similar thing a couple if years ago and needed several dressing changes. There was one he was not at all happy with and basically it was too tight and lumpy around the wound itself. He was however a big wimp on the first night home ( even with pain relief! He is a big girls blouse). I would get them to check the dressig if he is no better today

Morning! Sorry, I fell asleep last night before I got a chance to post. I loosened the bandage at his paw and re-did it again - he fell asleep straight after!! Thanks everyone for the advice much appreciated xxxx

Nope, the vet didn't prescribe painkillers!!!

so glad he got some relief last night. Quite often swelling makes bandages that are fine when they are applied too tight. Just glad that you sorted it last night because he would have been in agony otherwise. Well done!

Pleased to hear that Copper was more comfortable after the bandage adjustment. Poor boy must have been in a lot of pain.
