Yes, but do NOT let him/her lick it. If he/she does, take him/her to the vet immediately.
Ok, I looked this up yesterday as my cat had an abscess that was looking pretty bad yesterday. I was in a PANIC!! I had used some Neosporin plus pain relief to try to make him more comfortable as his injury healed. I read this and freaked OUT and rushed to the nearest Vet, ONLY to find out that the medicines in Neosporin are so minimal that unless you are literally squeezing the tube down the animals throat it is NOT going to harm them. The Vet's office even told me that they tend to use Neosporin on some wounds that the felines and canines get. So, on a positive note, I got my pet the shot of antibiotics that will help him heal quicker. On the negative side, my daughter cried the whole way to the Vet thinking that her cat was going to die due to bathing himself and taking in the Neosporin. Please don't post answers unless you are 100% sure you are correct. My pet will be fine, but has now cost me an additional emergency Veterinarian fee.

∙ 14y agoYes, you can, but neosporin is intended for externam use only and if they lick it it might make them sick.

∙ 14y agoMy friend is a vet and she told me that animals meds are identical, names and all, to the meds that we take just in smaller doses. If your cat is hurt i think it would be a great idea.
