I am impressed with how neat the stitches look

a funny side note: when Mikhaila got stitches in her leg a few years ago, it was clear to me that we weren't going to bother going to a doctor to get them taken out - it's not that hard and I did it myself. This was fine with Mikhaila. Now both Mikhaila and I are squeamish about taking Sammy's out when the time comes. She more than I though. Given the fact that the vet is an hour away, I may end up doing it myself after talking with him.
