We did try a few things for Choccy, but nothing worked.
We tried a hair scrunchie around what neck he does have, but that lasted about 5 seconds.
We tried one of those donut things that you can use to put a bun in your hair, but that was equally ineffective.
The one that lasted the longest was the harness from a lead to walk ferrets. It had two straps and velcro and whilst it didn't cover his wounds it did prevent him from curling around to get to them.
Initially it looked as though it would work, but he disappeared into his house, there was a lot of scuffling and then the harness flew out the front of the house, still all done up!! He really didn't like it.
Fortunately the second wound closure did the trick and he healed up beautifully.
He will have a lovely life now.
