My Momma cat has this problem as well only it is much bigger than a quarter. We tried the shot and many other things, but the main problem we have is that when it is healing, it itches and she scratches. We have resorted to putting antibiotic cream on the spot with a piece of gauze covering the area and then wrapping a self-adhesive bandage (like an ace bandage) around her body to keep the antibiotic in place and prevent more damage from scratching. We change the bandage completely during the different stages of healing: scabs, new skin, hair growth. This works as long as we don't take the bandages off until she is completely healed and her hair is grown back.
