How to clean your cat’s ears
-Wrap your cat gently in a towel and hold him on your lap. The towel will prevent him from breaking free or scratching you.
-Inspect each ear carefully. The inside of the ears should be pink, perky and odor free. If there is any white, yellow or greenish discharge or puss, or there appears to be redness, black scabs, swelling or foul odor, consult your veterinarian immediately.
-Gently wipe the outside of the interior ear (the pink part) with a cotton ball or Q-tip. DO NOT insert into the ear canal!
-Following the directions on the ear cleaning solution, placing one or two drops in each ear, working on one ear at a time.
-Rub the base of each ear to work the cleaning solution in.
-Let your cat go for a while to shake his head and dislodge the debris in the ears.
-After about 5 minutes gently wipe away debris with a cotton ball.
