You can use a cone so she can’t reach it. I’ve also just dressed then in dog pajamas or an infant tee shirt or onesie. Usually cats don’t mind wearing clothes and that will protect the skin while still letting it breathe. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Lucky.
