After cats are infected with ear mites, there will be severe itching and inflammation inside their ears. Cats often rub or scratch their ears, and sometimes moan because of itching.

There will be black or brown scales in the ears, and there will be exudate and odor in the ears. In severe cases, the cat's ears are either hearing impaired or too sensitive, which may even lead to headache and dizziness.

2, commonly used drug therapy

In the treatment of ear mite infection, it is best to diagnose and prescribe drugs for cats by veterinarians, so as to ensure the use of appropriate drugs and appropriate doses. The following are some drugs commonly used to treat ear mites:

(1) pyrithione

Pyrhiophene is a powerful disinfectant for pet ears, which can not only effectively kill ear mites, but also prevent the recurrence of infection.

(2) Ivermectin

Ivermectin is a drug used to treat ear mites, bacterial infections and other skin problems. Can quickly remove common bacteria such as ear mites, and can also eliminate cat ear itching.

(3) popularize ear washing liquid

Universal ear washing liquid is a convenient pet ear washing liquid, which can reduce the influence of ear mites on cats by dissolving secretions and other substances that produce odor.

3. Massage and clean your ears

It is necessary to massage and clean the ears while using drugs to treat mite infection in cat ears, which is helpful to promote drug absorption and prevent bacterial infection.

Clean the earwax with a cotton ball and a suitable detergent, and then dry it with a paper towel. You can consult your veterinarian about the choice of detergent.

When pressing the ear, you can comfortably hold the root of the ear and gently massage the ear with your thumb and forefinger to promote drug absorption.

4, prevention methods

The best way to prevent ear mite infection is to keep cats healthy. Keep your ears dry every day and clean your cat regularly to avoid mutual infection and contact with sick animals.

In addition, it is necessary to take pets to the veterinary hospital for examination regularly to prevent problems before they happen and avoid unnecessary pain and treatment costs.
