Cat with cone of shame :(

Beatrice
So my 2 year old car got an allergic reaction near her ears. She kept scratching at the scabs so the vet gave her a cone to keep her from scratching. The poor kitty is now miserable with it - we're on day 3 and she's being very brave but it's obviously annoying to her :( I think she'll need to have it for a week at least. 
Anyone else had this experience with a pet before? I feel so bad for her 😔
