You get a WHOLE pillow usually? You don't have to usually SHARE your pillow?
Years ago when Sam had the tip of his toe amputated, he was a 'challenge' and at the time I told Vicki's husband that if there was a NEXT time with Sam, then I was leaving him in his care until he was back to normal (well normal as Sam could be). He said, "If you leave him with me you won't get him back." He loved Sam of course as did Vicki. Soooooooooooo - if I'd left Bailey with Vicki, she might have been kitty-napped.
Bailey starts to wash the wound site ever now and then and I say to her, "No Bailey, remember what Vicki said about washing that?" Believe it or not, Bailey stops washing that spot.
