My kitten scratched himself and caused an absess to form, I was able to drain it and have been cleaning it with peroxide and neosporin. It is healing very well, but I just noticed a pocket of fluid under his neck I believe is caused from the peroxide. Will this fluid dry out?

Only a vet can advise you on this after examining your cat.

No, peroxide will not cause a pocket of fluid to form under the skin.
This sounds very suspicious and needs a vet to look at it ASAP.
