wow, your trying to kill your cat??? thats outrages, how could a 400mg ADULT dose of a medication be okay to give a cat of abt 10 lbs????
a cat is at least 1/10 the weight of even a small adult....

besides how do you know that amoxicillin is the right antibiotic for whatever bacteria is growing, I assume a wound?

if you give too much its highly toxic and can kill him,

if you give too little it will only make the bacteria more aggressive and than untreatable

do your kitty a huge favor and take him to a Vet to be properly diagnosis and tested to see WHICH antibiotic this infection is SUSCEPTIBLE to, otherwise you are doing no good and are into dangerous treatment for kitty.

a Vet visit and a prescription should cost less than $50. you owe your cat that!!! PLEASE
