My cats incision got infected yesterday and I took her to the vets. They have antibiotics and today her incision is infected again. What do I do?

It may take a day or two for the antibiotics to have a visible effect. In the meantime, If the wound is superficial and just in the skin, I suggest washing the area well with antibacterial soap and water. Apply a warm washcloth to it 2-3 times a day for five minutes at a time to help keep it clean and draining. After washing and the compress, dry it well and apply a small amount of antibiotic ointment that does NOT contain hydrocortisone, like Neosporin to the wound. Steroids will slow healing. Don't leave any excess for your pet to lick off. If it does not show signs of healing or your pet develops a fever, loses her appetite, starts vomiting and/or having diarrhea, if the spot becomes more reddened, hot and/or hard, get her in to be seen by your veterinarian right away.
