Call your vet and explain the situation. Tell them the label says it is good for both dogs and cats, and ask them what the appropriate dosage is for your cat. I am sure your vet won't want to see your kitty just for ear mites, especially if you already have meds for it.

I wouldn't do it without consulting the vet first. It might be okay, or it might not. You definitely need some guidance as to dosage.

I agree. You should never cross-medicate until you are sure that what your kitty has IS earmites. Will your vet let you go on a payment plan?

NO YOU SHOULD NEVER USE ANOTHER PET'S MEDICATION UNTIL THE VET CAN TELL YOU WHAT IS WRONG AND THE VET APPROVES IT!
