That's what I thought you said once before. I doubt I'll keep the cone on her that long. She kept getting out of it most of the morning anyway and I'm tired of cleaning up the puddles of water she makes in the kitchen trying to drink. I guess I just worry about her licking too much and getting messed up like Nani did. But, the good thing is they glue it shut at this place, no stitches to pull out.
