That's what I was thinking regarding the amoxicillin. She weighs 2.3kg (5 pounds) so I guess it makes sense with the 57mg/lb. I have been crushing it and putting it in mashed up pellets in water with cat food and she's been eating it, so I guess I'll just continue doing that for nowThat is a lot of amoxicillin. How much does she weigh? Most people give 125-250 mg twice a day orally. Some vets use 57mg per pound of weight twice daily. You can split the tablet into 2 or 4 pieces. They can swallow a piece whole. Or you can crush it and hide it in just a bit of food. I use scramble egg, but cream cheese, peanut butter, or cat food pate work well. The miconazole may help if the skin problem is fungal or favus. Some also use coconut oil for dry or scaly skin.
