Liquid opiate? No wonder he seems calm! Your doing well luxbear. Not too sure why a vet would prescribe an opiate though unless of course for pain as that`s what these drugs are. They usually prescribe Baytril antibiotic for cuts, bites, grazes but only if the wound is pussy or abscessed.

Try and let it heal naturally unless you feel it needs cleaning obviously. Sometimes too much fussing can keep the wound moist and prevent it from drying naturally. x
