Chloe: My cat was a rescued feral barn kitten, and came with a slew of issues like flea infestation, roundworms, kennel cough, and ear mites/infections. Of course we treated all of the above both at home and with a vet, but despite several rounds of treatment for ear mites, our kitten (now cat) continued to have bouts of ear problems, shaking head, digging ear, hotness to the ear when touched, tenderness, liquid sound in the ear when rubbing below the ear, and a brown gunk inside. After much internet research, I came to believe that she was experiencing recurring ear infections opposed to ear mites. I decided to try this product to see if cleaning the gunk out as the internet suggested, would help. It did not solve it, and after seeing a vet, I learned that in our kitty's particular case, antibiotics were needed, and she likely may have recurring episodes requiring medication. BUT, vet said cleaning her ears was all the more important for her, so we will continue using this product.
Some info/tips from my experience with this product:
1.) It has a pleasant smell that isn't strong, and doesn't seem to bother the cat.
2.) The cat does NOT enjoy letting me out this in her ears, and...

1. Like I said, Nutmeg is easy-going. I rescued her at about 4 days old. She comes when called and pretty much let's me do whatever I want to her because she's so trusting. She got a bacterial infection in her left ear, for which she is going through a round of oral meds (clavamox) + these ear drops. There was a good amount of blood/pus in there, which is why I got the drops. I tested a couple of drops on the back of her neck first to ensure she didn't have a reaction. The liquid is clear with a pleasant odor. It doesn't smell harsh or chemical-y at all.
I swaddled Nutmeg in a tight little purrito to give her both the oral + otic meds. I gently held her head and put a few of the drops in her left ear, massaged a bit and then let her go. I gave her treats after every time as a reward. Her ear was re-checked after 1 week of treatment and there was no blood or pus left! Totally clean ear canal. It was a very easy process and worked like a charm.
