I'm not sure but maybe there's a bandage made for cats. Or get it an e-collar to prevent it from opening the wound even more.

The vet should have wrapped the wound with a bandage to help it heal. Can you call the vet and ask if a bandage cabe be wrapped around the leg? In a pinch you can use a roll of first aid gauze. Don't wrap it too tightly. The wound needs some room to breathe. Pet stores may sell self adhesive pet bandages. Vet wrap is common.
