Hi there. I'm unsure exactly what the wound looks like without a picture-however I would suggest a triple antibiotic ointment twice a day as long as there isn't a large open wound that requires immediate veterinary care. Make sure Whiskers isn't allowed to eat or groom off any of the ointment. I hope this helps!
