Put a few stitches in it up the outside of the ear. Spray wounds spray along the inside of it, antibiotics for a few days.

Then you can splint it and wrap with vet wrap so it won't get banged up

Super glue helped me to get the small awkward places to heal up.

Sometimes ear cartilage has a hard time healing. On a female I had, after stapling it back together, I took two pieces of cardboard & taped it over the ear & then used vet wrap to keep it up against her head so she could not shake her head. Then put a cone on her to keep her from scratching it. Sounds like overkill but it healed just fine.
