Default Outer ear infection
My cat Eartha had a severely swollen outer ear infection that was lanced and drained. Now she is taking Amoxicillin and I am using hydrogen peroxide to clean her wound. The tissue looks nasty, and possibly necrotic. If anyone has any suggestions to aid her recovery , I would certainly appreciate it !

Sounds like you are doing the right thing. Just make sure to keep the ear clean, keep the cat's area clean. (litter box, bedding etc.)
