You’re Amazing!!! I just rescued two feral cats and tried to keep them separated from my cat that I already own. My house cat still got Ear Mites, and quite bad. She refused to let me put eardrops in her ears and I got carved up like a Thanksgiving Turkey! Not to mention it stressed her out so much and I felt so horrible. She hates me right now:((( I had to take her to the vet and they gave her Bravecto Plus, for fleas and a variety of worms 🪱 but it’s also very effective in killing ear mites. It’s squirts right on the back of the neck and it’s so simple! I just knew there had to be an alternative to putting eardrops in my cats ears because most of them absolutely hate it and your little friendly fluff ball becomes your enemy really quickly. It was soooo devastating upsetting my little fluff ball😢 She’s doing sooo much better now and Loves me again:)) Thank Heavens!!!!
You are amazing, thank you!!my cat has food allergies but he’s been on a prescription Royal Canin PR diet for over a year and his ears haven’t been a problem since.
Hi Dr Sally, i'm not sure if you'll see this, but I'm treating a semi-feral cat for an infection. He hates it (and have gotten away once) but so far I've been able to administer the ear drops quick enough before he could outrun me. The trouble is giving the ears a massage, which I was instructed by the vet to do. Sometimes he'd let me for a 3-5 seconds, other times he won't. Some veterinary websites told me I shouldn't force the ear massage on the cat if they recoil from their ears being touched, but I would appreciate your advice 🙏

Hi Dr.Sally, my cat ears are itchy and peep. I mean, her ears are not getting dry. For that, please tell me some medicine name. I will be very thankful to you.please😫🙏🙏
thanks for this @DrSallyJFoote - I have to administer some ear drops to my cat for 10 days! He doesn't react in pain when we touch his ears, it's a mild infection but no ear mites present. Heloathed eye drops so much we never managed to get them in (luckily the eye issue cleared up on its own) and I am sure he will loathe the ear drops. It is a pump action canula that has to be put into the ear! Do you have restraint advise for this, and could you shed light on how far down the ear we should put the canula? Thank you for all your excellent videos!
Approximately 7 minutes into the video you say"9k we have swabbed for ear mites"…. When? When did we swap for ear mites. After talking about the pillowcase towel you slip into complete office mode and we're right at the veterinarian.
All talk. No demonstration?
