Ear infections cause pain and discomfort and the ear canals are sensitive. Many cats will shake their head and scratch their ears attempting to remove the debris and fluid from the ear canal. The ears often become red and inflamed and may develop an offensive odor. A black or yellow discharge is commonly observed.
Why is my cat's ear bent over?
Some feline ear abnormalities are genetically transferred from parents to offspring. Among these is an inherited condition known as “fold-ears,” in which the tip of a cat's pinna is bent sharply either toward or away from the skull. This bizarre condition is not often associated with hearing loss.
How can you tell if your cat has an ear infection?
- Ear discharge resembling coffee grounds.
- Yellowish or black discharge.
- Head tilting.
- Swelling or redness in the ear canal.
- Hearing loss.
