Cat's Ear Odor !!
Hi Folks,
Our 6 yr old Black Shorthaired cat has developed a FOUL odor eminating from his ears...like rotten shrimp. We've recently treated for mites... He shows no signs of distress. Any thoughts? Thanks! K.M.Smith Spring Lake, NJ |

Possible abcess down in the ear canal due to infection/inflammation from
mites. Can be potentially fatal if left untreated. Please take him to the vet and have them check it out. :-( -- Peace, Pen -- Pawbreakers - The Candy for Cats! http://www.pawbreakers.com "Master Ken" wrote in message m...
