Keeping a Cat from Scratching a Sore?

My cat has got a sore on his neck. He keeps scratching and then he bleeds. What can I put on it so that he won't scratch? No cone, he doesn't like it at all.

Ace bandage. Depends were on the neck. You can cut a tub sock and use that too. This way it covers the sore protects it and if you need to put meds on it the cat can't lick it off. Also you can wash it and save money on buying other materials

Put some ointment that is safe to lick but has an unpleasant taste. Ask the vet to recommend one.

You can try to apply coconut oil a couple times a day to the affected area. This way, if your cat does lick it, it will do no harm by ingestion.

Coconut oil has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, moisturizing and healing properties and can, therefore effectively heal wounds.
Good luck
