I have a rescue cat, she's about 12 years old. Months ago she started having a discharge out of one ear. The vet prescribed a course of antibiotics, twice a day for a fortnight. Nothing changed. Then another lot for 40 days of two different antibiotics mixed together.
Then the vet said there was a tumour in the ear and she needed an operation, so I paid for that, the travel to the specialist, several days recuperating at the vets and yet another course of antibiotics, injections this time. But the waxy stuff is still coming out of her ear. She hates me cleaning it, and runs away as soon as I get the cotton wool out or if I manage to get hold of her, she bites and scratches.
I can't really afford all this, and I'm not in UK. The cat doesn't seem to be at all distressed, but it's not very nice when she shakes her head and sprays this wax everywhere.
Has anybody got any advice?
