Thank you for the input.  I'm ordering on of these today or tomorrow and using the bandage until I get it in the mail. 

Thank you for the suggestion.  I have an ace bandage and will try it right now.  I should have mentioned that her previous neurological illness left her with some behavioral issues.  She definitely isn't a lap kitty.  We can pet and scratch her.  She will play a little and show us a little...
