My 2 kittens were spayed on Friday. I bought a surgical “T shirt” for each of them from the vet. (25) and from the moment I got them home and put them on, even though they were still off their faces, with vet drugs, they were just beside themselves and so stressed. Also the rear leg elastic on the shirts sat in their incision site so I don’t think it was comfortable at all. Then I tried the cone of shame that the vet provided. Awful awful!! They were tying themselves in knots, falling over themselves as they were still off their heads, and sooo distressed. These are brilliant. Stay on, no stress, stops access to the surgical site. They’re a bit unbalanced with them and can’t get through the same gaps in the house that they expect, but no backing up, no flipping out, no freezing in fear. They just work. A bit tricky for them to eat, but they manage. These are the best answer to stopping a cat/kitten disturbing an incision site that I have ever seen. Why don’t vets stock them? ( just make dure their normal collar is a tiny bit looser before threading through the inflatable collar, and check that you can get a couple of fingers in under their throat. Also check when their curled up sleeping, that it leaves their throat and neck free enough not to cause a danger to them. You can also remove the outer cover for washing. I cannot recommend these highly enough.

easy to inflate, easy to attach to the collar
But our dog did manage to rip apart a couple of the loops and get it half off her head
its definately better than usuing a cone but does the job required when you cant keep an eye on the dog
