I'll just keep an eye on him, today and tomorrow. I think it's just a question of him getting used to it. He settled right in to eat.

Hopefully he will spend a lot of time on my lap.

Barring anything unexpected, the procedure sounds pretty minimal. Hopefully he won't have to wear the collar afterwards, or just for a few days.
