How to Administer Ear Medication to Cat
In order that they are effective, the medicines for ears should always come up to the eardrum. Most of the packing take incorporated a mouthpiece or applicator sufficiently long as to adapt to the auditory conduit without causing hurts.
- Speak to the cat in calm tone and raise him to a table. Wrap him in a towel if it is necessary.
- Hold the ear with a hand and insert with other one the mouthpiece of the packing in the opening of the auditory channel.
- Press the pipe or flask in order that the product goes out.
- Untie the ear and massage the auditory channel. (A sound as of "squelch" indicates that the massage is distributing well the medicine for the channel)
- Hold the ear and clean the excess of the medicine and any dirt. (This way you will prevent that the medicine works out shot in all directions when the cat shakes the head)
- Praise the cat and give to him a treat as a reward
Never use specific products to eliminate the earwax if exists the risk of which the ear drum may be perforated.
