“He isdoing soooo much betterbut as u can see he has tons of stitches from a super intense surgery … please be careful, she wrote on another Story post. “Also please note these must be surgically removed. They do not heal on their own!”

“Take care of your pets or don’t have one! We are so grateful he is ok and will live a long happy life!” she captioned.
