There are some that you can, but you should not try without consulting the Vet.
Best thing to do, ask vet.

You should not - the chances are that you will kill it or make it very sick due to dosage issues. If you have, for example a pill that contains 100mg of medicine, for a cat you may only need 5mg of that medicine. So you have to cut the pill up into 1/20th sections, and if you make a mistake and give the cat 1/10th of the pill instead, you've just given it a double dose and it could die.
Also, there will probably be issues with the coating on the pill that may also make the cat very sick. Don't do it.

I have a cat that has a abscess on his belly. It is about the size of a quarter and leaking a lot of puss. I just noticed it yesterday and can't afford to take the little guy to the vet, I did however call the vet and was told to wash it out with beta dine, keep him from licking the wound, and make sure he doesn't have fever. I do have some of my antibiotics from an abscessed tooth, that are in capsule form........should I????????? I was also wondering if I should pack the wound like the human Dr. Would if I had a burst abscess? Fluid is leaking everywhere and I think it would heal faster if I were to do a wet to dry dressing. If anyone has advice, I'd sure appreciate it.
