Day 7: As suggested by Dr. Robert Howard, Woody needs to bathe. The visiting nurse arrived early this am and carefully protected his stitches from moisture. (We are taking no chances on developing an infection, especially after Woody's devastating bout with Avian Flu last year.)
Sadly, an old memory surfaced of Woody's childhood Parakeet playmate, Petie, who fell into a toilet and drowned, so Woody has now refused to bathe. Our solution seems to be to wait until the ice thaws in the birdbath out back and try again in the Spring.
As an aside, Maggie also refuses to bathe.
