You can use this wound spray gel, 3-4 times per day on the affected area. If she starts to act sick at any time (not eating, very lethargic, vomiting, etc) then she needs to see a vet. https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/vetericyn-cat-wound-and-skin-hydrogel

1. Get her some antibiotics: https://www.petsworld.in/corise-clivet-suspension-20-ml.html 2. Apply this salve to her wounds. It also has a fly repellent in it. If you don't do this, she will get maggots in the wounds. https://www.petsworld.in/himalaya-scavon-cream-50-gm.html 3. Feed her some high quality, high calorie food like kitten wet food: https://www.petsworld.in/royal-canin-kitten-instinctive-cat-food-1-2-kg.html 4. Keep her inside for at least one week so she can heal.

Ideally, Horus should be examined by your veterinarian. Vetericyn, while a good product for minor wounds, may not be enough for a serious injury. He may need systemic antibiotics which your vet can administer or dispense after an exam. Pain management should also be discussed.

I understand your predicament. I think this will heal if you just continue to keep the wounds clean and moist. I don't know what was previously recommended but I would suggest this spray. But with oral antibiotics and medications you got from the vet he should heal OK. I'm assuming the $600 was to have surgery to put stitches in the wound?? https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/vetericyn-cat-wound-and-skin-hydrogel

No, it does not really look infected. Peroxide is only good after the initial injury - after that, if you continue to use it, it will delay healing. I suggest you use this spray gel on it instead: https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/vetericyn-antimicrobial-feline-facial-therapy-for-cats His left eye also looks weepy so I think you should get this eye gel too: https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/vetericyn-plus-antimicrobial-pet-ophthalmic-gel
