I read this idea here
Tink got spayed on Thursday and started trying to lick her stitches when we got home...regardless of Bitter Apple. So, I got some baby Onsies, cut a hole for her tail and have been keeping her in them. It's working really well. She can't get to her stitches but they still get plenty of air to heal. They're looking fabulous. She's not super keen on the onsie but it's way better than the Cone of Shame!
Here is the least blurry pic I could get...
