vet techs/cat experts:what to put on cats wound?anxiety/o.c.d behaviour question?

just adopted a cat.he has an anxiety,o.c.d problem and overgrooms himself to the point of forming wounds on his skin.i have an appointment ,but the vet cant see me till next friday morning.so,for a week,is there anything i can put on the sore spot to soothe it?its not hot spots from fleas,according to the shelter vet,its an actual psyche problem.i have him with his buddy cat(they get along well) in a large bedroom.im keeping his environment quiet and calm.he has toys and i play with him a lot.is there anything else that can calm him till the vet can get him some meds for anxiety?he has a feliway “calming collar” but it hasnt helped much.any advice,thanx in advance!
the shelter said “just put bacitracin on it”,at the time i said ok,but now i feel i should ask-what if he licks the bacitracin? that doesnt sound like it would be ok….
i told them but they said theyre booked till fri.i might try another vetif we can get him in sooner.

I suggest e collar until the vet visit. The cat can have many issues going on. The OCD is very common with shelter cats. I would try another vet and see if they can work him in sooner. Buy a e collar. Put it on and leave it on the cat will hate it but in time the cat will adjust. One thing I use at the shelter all the time on sores is Bag Balm you can buy it at a Pet store or at any Walmart in the pet dept. It comes in a green metal tub about five dollars. It is a medicated ointment and if the cat licks it,it wil not hurt the cat this stuff works wonders.
