Clavamox is a form of amoxycillin, one of the penicillin family of antibiotics. It is used in cases where an infection is suspected. It's one of the mildest antibiotics and is used generally when the specific illness is not completely diagnosed.

Can you give a cat penicillin for a respiratory infection?

You are far better advised to visit the vet and get a prescription that is made for cats. Feline metabolism is different enough from human that drugs that are harmless to humans will kill cats; plus the necessary dosage is very different, even for those drugs that are used for cats. Typically, your vet will prescribe Clavamox, which contains amoxycillin, a member of the penicillin family which is still somewhat effective.
