Chipmunk found by cats and general in good shape but may have one scratch or puncture wound with possible infection. Eating and drinking find while recovering over past few days, but has lost energy and grown lethargic in last 24 hours. Found this forum and have 500mg Cipro tab in hand along with experience medicating various types of animals.
Chipmunk is 128g.
Have 1cc syringe on hand along with needle(if necessary for subcutaneous injection).
Assume the dose is mixed with water and delivered orally without needle, but please correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Can anyone help me dose for an adolescent chipmunk? My cat was chasing him & I was able to save him.. I don’t see wounds but am concerned he may have been scratched or bitten.. what should I do?
I don’t have a scale. I have Ciprofloxacin 250mg pills.. I may also have clavamox & amoxicillin. Do i administer orally or injection?
