You need a cone to put over her head to stop her from licking it, but it sounds like she really needs to see the vet from your description ASAP! Last edited: Oct 18, 2012

Take the cat back to the vet immediately. The insides can actually FALL OUT. They will probably staple her up, and will def. put a cone on her. This is an emergency, so taking her back right away is important! Good luck!
