SHE PULLED HER STITCHES!!!!!! HELPPPPPPPP

[jap08m]

Reddit pulled her stitches from getting fixed. Her surgery was on the 28th of last month. Shes been fine until I checked her today and her stitches are GONE!!!!!! The vet wont even be open until tomorrow. Is there anything i can do before tomorrow. It looks like the wound is open about 1/2 an inch!!!!!!!!

See if you can find an emergency vet in your area that's open 24/7.

I looked on yellowpages for you and found this:

Dunno if it's close or far but give it a shot and good luck!

I found this on the House Rabbit Society's website, "Occasionally a female will pull out her stitches. Get her stitched up again, and then belly-band her by wrapping a dish towel around her whole middle and binding that with an elastic bandage wrapped snuggly over it. If she can breath normally, it isn't too tight."

I would wrap at least something around her even before you can get her stitched up. It'll keep her form licking it and dissolving the stitches on the inside...

Sounds like she may have to have the cone of shame!

Keep it clean, Betadine is your best bet. Not really an emergency.
