I want to clean my cat's ears because she is always insisting on me scratching her ears. I am still afraid of using the cleaning solution since my previous experiences of putting ear drops in her ears due to an infection weren't very good ones.
Why is everybody so put off by pouring things in ears? I pour baby oil in my ears (have pretty waxy ears) and it is not painful or even unpleasant. The point of pouring a liquid in there is to help dissolve whatever is in there. If you just wipe the inside with something moist, that will not dissolve anything other than what you are rubbing. Besides, without pouring liquid, you do have to rub and cats have some really dry things in there that can scratch their ears as you rub - THAT's unplasant.
Ok at 1:25 the look on that cats face made me think of two things. One, Snape from Harry Potter. 2, "If you don't get me outta here, I will piss in your laundry"
I am a vet and think these videos are good tools for helping owners to be able to treat their pets - ear drops, tablets etc. Always seek your own vet's advice before starting any treatment, and most vets and veterinary nurses will be happy to help you perfect your technique.
Animals' ears clog just like humans. NEVER pour anything into their ears! It could be more than unpleasant- They COULD GO DEAF! Please do NOT follow this very irresponsible video. Leave it to the professionals to do that only in emergency health situations.
@1tingMor I'm sorry but you have no idea what you're talking about. You HAVE to squirt stuff into their ears, either a product made for pets ears or some kind of oil. That is the only way you are going o get wax and other gunk out of their ears and help get rid of ear mites. You can't shove a q-tip down there, there is no other way. If you don't clean their ears then you aren't a responsible pet owner, pet's ears bother them when wax is trapped in there. Any vet will tell you to do this.
@xxviciousbeautyxx Please don't tell me what I know or don't know. I know that you must clean cat's ears, that's a given. You do not do that by pouring liquid into their ears, UNLESS like I said it is an ER situation which should be handled by a pro if poss anyway. It clogs their ears, & they just try to shake it out anyway. Both animals and humans have ear drums; do you like when something gets in your ears? There are more apropriate videos out there, do your research and THINK for yourself.
@1tingMor Then don't post comments on here if you don't want people to respond. Thanks but I have done my research and have heard from actual vets (which by the way most vets actually sell ear cleaning liquid for owners to buy). Are you a doctor or vet? Exactly how are you supposd to clean pets ear then? You can't just wipe around the top, you have to be able to clean the inside of their ear to get al the wax out. JUST like humans have to do that. Doesn't bother me when water gets in my ears.
@1tingMor Well, are you a vet? And it's not as if she is taking a pitcher and pouring something in, and theres a vet who commented that this was a good video, and you talk as if she is pouring a gallon of liquid in the cars ears, she only put in a few drops.
Cat's ears can get filthy, and it is for uncomfortable them, and that doesn't exactly count as an emergency worth the ER, and why fork over about $10 every time you clean them, more over, if a cat has ear mits, YOU HAVE TO SQUIRT Stuff in.
Thanks for this vid! Have had cats on and off for a few years, have 3 now. One is a recent pound rescue who is the first of mine to have perpetually gunky ears. Vet said at the time of adoption that it wasn't enough to be too concerned, but I think I'll start cleaning all their little ears more regularly just as a preventative.
Sticking pointy things in any living creatures ears is a dangerous thing. Better to use some damp gauze on your baby finger or LEAVE IT TO A PROFESSIONAL to due ....geesh!
Thanks for this, I've always wondered what the best way was. I have tried q-tips, but it's not easy, and I normally just give up. I've shot hydrogen peroxide down my cat's ears before, she doesn't like it, but it doesn't seem to hurt her. Her ears stay dirty, and that bothers me, bc my 12 year old calico past away a few months after a bad ear infection that caused her blood vessels to pop and cauliflowered her ear.
@xstarunitx this is 5months late, but dont use q-tips in your cats ears. even when that failed, putting some other solution isnt the best. maybe you'd of learnt something when your cat died from ear infection. like, how to prevent it. im sure a vet would of told you!
In the video you describe how to insert the ear cleaning liquid spout into the cat's ear "perpendicular" to the ear but the video show that you insert it 'parallel' to the ear flap.
Wow, Charlie is so good! I'm going to have to sedate my cat to clean his ears. He's a sphynx (hairless), so he has filthy ears...but he flails, scratches, screams and just wont let anyone near this middle ear. He's so strong that my vet & 2 assistants couldn't properly clean his ears, even though they wrapped him in a towel. I was watching them, and they really tried the best they could; but it was impossible!
The vet has given me a sedative so I can do it at home.
Thanks for the video, the instructions on the bottle weren't too helpful. Good job :-)
