same with my girl, we neutered her over a year ago and they didn't use a cone, instead they did only inside stithing. so she didn't even have visible stitches or anything, and then a few weeks later one big strand was outside, i cut it off and that was it. it was such a quick and painless experience. also, when we picked her up from the vet, the nurse had her wrapped up in her blanket and sweet talking to her, it was so nice to see
they said she'd wake up around 3pm but my dragon was already running around at 1pm, well, she was trying to. it was hilarious and i felt terrible for laughing
