Severe ear mites not only harm a cat’s physical health but also cause a bad smell from the cat’s body, making the owner afraid to approach it. When a cat has ear mites, the owner should find ways to thoroughly cure the disease. Let it regain a healthy body and receive the family’s touch and hugs.

　　To treat cat ear mites, you first need to prepare professional medicine and treatment tools. For example, cotton swabs, baby oil, ear mite treatment drops, syringes, towels, and so on.

　　First, dip a cotton swab in a small amount of baby oil and gently wipe the cat’s ears; or directly drip a few drops of baby oil in the ear canal to soften the dirt, then gently wipe it clean with a cotton swab. During the operation, hold the cat in your arms, gently fold back the outer ear, and then wipe with the cotton swab. Be gentle and careful when wiping, do not hurt or injure the cat.

　　Second, after wiping clean, use a syringe to draw an appropriate amount of ear mite treatment drops and drip them into the cat’s ear canal. After dripping, hold the cat’s head steadily with both hands for a few seconds to let the medicine flow fully into the ear canal. Then fold the ear back, gently massage the outside of the ear canal and the ear base with both hands to help the medication take effect.

　　After treating one ear, you can treat the other ear in the same way. We know ear mites are contagious diseases, so while treating the cat’s ears, also disinfect the environment to prevent disease spread. Of course, if conditions permit, it’s best to isolate and treat the cat with ear mites to prevent transmission. (Source：PetsZone)
