Yes, our kitten had them when we got her. We took her to the vet, and they gave her something that got rid of them. She had them bad in both ears.

Yes, they sure do! To detect ear mites, look down into the cat's ear canal. Ear mites look like there's a bunch of dirty brown goo in the ear canal. A normal ear canal without ear mites will be pink (or the color of the cat's skin) without much dirt.

absolutely. I have a cat that was a stray, she had a bad case of ear mites when we took her in. Take her to the vet, they will determine if it is in fact ear mites and if it is they will give you ear medicine for it. It is pretty easy to get rid of. My poor cat does still after 5 years, have sensitive ears.

Cats get ear mites WAY more than dogs. Many kittens have them and they can be hard to clear up.

Yes they do get ear mites. But I don't know much about them.

Yes they can get ear mites. I had an 8 week old kitten who had them.

Absolutely! A cat's ears need to be checked by a vet if you suspect this is the case. We love our cats, and need to protect them from this kind of stuff. Simple drops will take care of it.
