Ear mites are common in kittens and outdoor cats but adults often have allergic or bacterial otitis instead—misdiagnosis wastes time.
Itching without visible dirt
Allergies, polyps, foreign grass seeds, or yeast overgrowth after humidity.
Otoscopic exam
Only veterinary otoscopy and cytology guide correct drops.
Pet NGON grooming observes outer ear hygiene but does not prescribe drops.
Safe bathing with thorough outer-ear drying after vet clearance reduces moisture flare-ups.
Next step: Vet visit for smelly or painful ears; Pet NGON bath after approval.
