Taking Care of Your Cat's Ears

A cat's ears should be checked regularly for signs of unpleasant odor, redness, and/or inflammation, all of which should be examined by a veterinarian. Professional service is also required if a cat is constantly scratching its ears. To clean the ears, use a cotton ball moistened with water. Clean only the external, visible portion; do not probe the ear canal. Do not use a cotton swab, except under a veterinarian's advice.

Quirk BooksThe Cat Owner's Manual is a basic guide to cat care.
The book was written by a celebrated veterinarian and an acclaimed author. It provides cat owners with well-researched and helpful information presented in a lighthearted manner. The creators chose to write the book in a style similar to what you'd find in "operating instructions" for a car or computer. Of course they--and we--respect the fact that our beloved pets are not products or machines!
