My cat's tail tip fell off. Can I put Neosporin on the injury?

Question

I shut my cats tail in the bathroom door and the tip fell off and a white string was attached to it. Can I put neosporin on it? Please help me. Pet's info: Cat | Bombay | Female | unspayed | 2 months and 13 days old

If the tip of Tar's tail fell off, you need to take her into the vet immediately. That white string may actually be bone, and the tail needs to be sutured. Neosporin will not help her, please take her into a vet right away, this is a medical emergency.
