Monkey’s Cone of Shame
Monkey wearing his protective collar after getting his ear drained Montgomery got an infected ear so he had to have it drained and wear this silly collar for 2 weeks. Every time I see him wearing it, I reminded of the "Cone of Shame" from the movie Up.

The routine begins with the German Shepherds, Sunna and Noet, engaging in a big dog ultimate-cage-fighting-wrestling-to-the-death match directly in front of me as I try to get out of bed.
