To properly care for a cat's ear wound, first clean the wound with a gentle antiseptic solution and sterile gauze. Apply a thin layer of antibiotic ointment and cover the wound with a clean bandage. Monitor the wound for signs of infection, such as redness or swelling, and consult a veterinarian if necessary. Keep the wound clean and dry, and follow any additional instructions provided by the vet for proper healing.
