We use cotton balls and the cleaning solution is Epi-Otic made by Virbac, which can be purchased from your vet. Ears should be cleaned weekly after their bath.

Guess I'm lucky, Frankie doesn't mine my doing his ears and nails...HATES baths though.lol! NO NO!! I don't want my ears cleaned!!! NOO!!
Kreacher doesn't like it, but he will tolerate it![]()
Yep, that's Piglet, too. Doesn't mind getting a bath, but hates, hates, hates getting her ears cleaned! And don't get me started on how much she hates getting her nails trimmed or cleaned...sigh.I have to wrap my kitties in a towel and then clean their ears or i get scratched lol they hate it!
Wow, Sam. I'm envious! Wish it was that way with Piglet, but I guess one can't have everything perfect about their cat.I must be really lucky! Mo isnt bothered about his ears being cleaned! Its probably really sad of me to admit but I love cleaning his ears I find it therapeutic!
Wow Harry makes noises too when I clean his nails. It's kind of pitiful really. Doesn't mind having them trimmed but hates anything that involves cleaning. He runs now when he sees me going for a wet wipeMaggie doesnt really mind she just lets me clean her ears & I also clean her nails & between her toes she makes noises @ me but I just tlk to her & she calms down!
We have a few members that do better with showers... I'm afraid to try it for fear of the deep claw marks I'd have down my back!Pye does not mind to have having his ears cleaned but hates baths. He is very found of showers.
Decibel runs from the wetwipes too. Maybe because I used a lot of them when she was a baby.Wow Harry makes noises too when I clean his nails. It's kind of pitiful really.

You really should not use q-tips, that should be left to A vet. A cotton ball with the epi-otic ear cleaner gets in the grooves great.I use a q-tip, is that bad? Abby hates it! But i don't know anyother way to get in her ear groves![]()
As long as you can SEE where the q tip is cleaning that is fine. Problems develop when you use a q tip and put it in past where you can see....that is bad.I use a q-tip, is that bad? Abby hates it! But i don't know anyother way to get in her ear groves![]()
