Cat / Mix - Answered 1199 days ago
Our pet had her ear cleaned at the vet a week ago. After we came back from the vet she was shaking her head and kept her ears flat for a while, and has lost her appetite since that day. There's a lot of liquid coming out of the ear, and the hair around it is all wet. Should I take her to the vet again?

Hello jeeni Here To help your cat’s ears stay perky and pest-free, check inside their ears regularly for signs of wax buildup, inflammation, or odor. If you notice a problem, it’s time to talk to your veterinarian. Cat’s ears are expressive, beautiful -- and very fragile. To avoid damaging the eardrum or packing wax deep into the ear, never insert anything into your cat’s ears or use over-the-counter medication unless your vet has shown you the proper way to do so. It’s easy to interpret a cat’s ear discharge as mites when it’s something else, or to leave a mild infection untreated until it becomes serious or chronic. Don’t leave your cat’s comfort to guesswork -- always talk to your vet when you suspect ear problems.
