Cat Tip 11: Ear Cleaning Tips
Never clean your cat's ears with Q-Tips®. If you need to clean your cat's ears use a warm-moist cotton ball. Unlike a child you can't always tell your cat to sit still (wouldn't it be nice if you could!). By using a cotton ball, rather than a Q-Tip®, you reduce the risk of poking or damaging the eardrum or ear canal if your cat jerks or moves quickly.
