Can a cat get a yeast ear infection?

Answer by  Ginger (376)

Yes they can and there is no way to prevent this. Scratching at the ears, waxy build up or a sweet smell coming from the ears can be a sign of this. To be sure take your cat to the vet for testing. They do have medicine to treat this and they will show you how to clean the ears.

Yes every cat can get these infections. It can be treated with a diluted white vinegar. It can also be treated with herbs.

Ye they can. You will want to get a medicated ear wash or ointment from your vet to manage this problem as it can be quite difficult to cure.

Cats are suceptible to yeast infections, just like dogs. The infection is usually caused by moisture. Medicine can be purchased from your vet to treat this condition.
