After a couple of days, you can try taking the cone off while you're watching her.
I'm assuming they meant general cleaning - I'm sure they don't want to itch the kitties abscessOriginally Posted by mooficat

My cat got an abscess removed and cant clean or itch herself. What can I use to do it for her, or something I can hold out and she can walk past and rub herself on it?
