Hi,
We rescued our beauty Darcy yesterday.

(Intro post here for some of her back story -https://sphynxlair.com/community/threads/meet-darcy-we-rescued-her-yesterday-help-appreciated.53774/)

She needs a good wash and pamper, and I’m trying to educate myself more on ear care before I give them a good clean.

How far can I go in? (Photo attached)

If anybody could print screen the photo and doodle on the image that would be super helpful! I know it’s possible to do anything on phones these days!

She’s going to feel great after a pamper I’m sure!

Many thanks

I have used this cleaner for quite some time.

I squirt a bit in their ears and ten massage the ears and place them in the bathtub where they shake as much out as possible LOL. They I use a Q-tip to get some gunk out followed by a baby wipe to get the rest of the wax out.

@darcybennett , awh... melt my heart.
we are here for you.
sharing when I first started ear cleaning, I wore a liittle head lamp to see in the nooks and crannies.
my vet got me hooked on trizultra w/keto almost 20 yrs ago for ear cleaning my pups and kitties. they dont mind bcz really has no scent.
I love it too because it is dual purpose and can be used as a skin flush. I use it 2x a week to wipe out ears with swippser cotton rounds and wetted brand qtips, body wipe down with swissper rectangle squares.

I put kitty on my lap on my little vanity chair and do 2x a week cleaning wipe downs and nails trims.

the trizultra really gets the brown off ! I use it everywhere except on face. for faces i use warm water baby cotton face clothes

for ears, I clean swirl in folds and wear I can see without going too deep. the little round flap on the edge holds gunk.

you will get a spa day routine down.

catzzzmeows post pic great one too!
