My cat was bit by another cat on his tail and it got infected. He won't take his oral antibiotic. Can I put an antibiotic on his wound/skin called Baneocin?
Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! I'd call your Vet tomorrow and ask if they have the injectable antibiotic called convenia. I think that will solve you having to medicate Cinco. But yes the ointment baneocin should be ok, just prevent him from licking it. It may not be enough, especially if your Vet felt he needed to be on oral antibiotics. Good luck!

Hello, I have a 5 year old cat that has black spots and irritation under his chin. We previopusly took him to the doctor a few months ago and he prescribed us dermalone ointment. Is it safe to treat the same problem
Hello, it's likely that Max has chin acne, Dermalone ointment should work to treat this. It's also recommended to use antibacterial cleansing pads on the skin (made for veterinary use). You will need to use the pads and ointment at least once daily for 7-14 days to see an improvement.

i went to a vet for my cat skin problem on the belly under one arm they gave me pills and a cortisone shot i went twice the same treatement cost 200. 00 in 3 weeks nothing as change i cant go on spending like that..no fleas nothing a compulsive lick
Aw, what a handsome boy! I’m sorry the treatment didn’t give him relief. You can try a product, such as [Zymox](https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/zymox-spray-with-5-hydrocortisone), on the areas where he seems most bothered. Also, I would recommend a “no additive” cat litter such as [Yesterday’s News](https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/purina-yesterdays-news-unscented-cat-litter) or [Feline Pine](https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/feline-pine-cat-litter). It may be that his anxiety is contributing to his [over grooming](https://www.petcoach.co/article/excessive-grooming-in-cats-what-it-means-and-how-to-help), so you might ask your vet about trying him on a medication such as [fluoxetine](https://www.petcoach.co/pet-medication/fluoxetine/). If none of this helps, it may be best to consider a consultation with a [veterinary dermatologist](https://www.acvd.org/tools/locator/locator.asp?ids=16_Find_Dermatologist) to get as directly t

So my cat has 2 abscesses thats what vet said then gave her a shot then sent us home with biomax it says for dogs only?
Many drugs can be used off-label and I recommend to call your veterinarian and discuss your concerns. Your vet will be able to explain their treatment decisions. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

I'm looking after 8 rescue cats in Bali and will be heading there from Australia on Tuesday. I'd really love some advice on which medicines to take to them as I find it quite hard to treat them in Bali. I need to treat an infected leg, a recent cat c
First of all you will need to get those medications from a vet as we are mainly talking about prescription medications. For ringworm Itraconazole is usually used, for infections i recommend taking Synolux which is the most widely used antibiotics in pets. i would also recommend taking worming tablets (Drontal) and flea treatment (advantage).
