So glad Eddie's problem was recognized early and help is on the way.

PT has taught me EVERYTHING I know! Well, I did learn some growing up around animals too, but some of those things were wrong.
People I work with somehow hear I am the "animal person" and come to me with questions. I do my best to help them. And if I don't know, I come here and ask.

Gosh, I had no idea about Eddie's ears. Glad to hear he is on the mend. I hadnt heard of yeast in cats ears. Seems like the large, open ear-way would not be a good growing ground.

My RB Bubba had a yeast infection in his ears. It was pretty easy to clear up.

His ears look all pink and healthy now and he is back to his usual self. But he hates, hates, hates the ear drops. And still another week of them twice a day! Edwina has finally stopped her hissing and growling at him. Vet smell must have worn off.

Cat - when you really look into a cat's ears - well Eddie's anyway - there are lots of deep dark recesses in there!

The vet said the yeast/bacteria was probably the results of allergies - either food or airborne. He has always bothered with his ears. So we need to keep a close eye and get them cleaned out when they fill up.

Oh Joy...taking him to the vet! However, he does not have the six Caution stickers on his file as Lady Edwina does! He just gets all sad and pitiful. You cannot imagine how much he sheds from fear at the vets!
