Ear infections in cats can also be caused by yeast or bacteria, and are more common causes of ear infections in adult cats. Ear mites are more common in kittens. In order to treat Belle properly, she does have to see a vet, and vets will see pets for sickness. This counts, as leaving it untreated can lead to hearing loss. Give her vet a call to make her an appointment.

Your best bet is to see your vet as soon as you can.

Unfortunately it's illegal for us to write a prescription from this site without seeing Ginny in person, so we cannot give you a prescription. It does sound like she has an ear infection, and she needs to see a vet for this. If you cannot leave the house, see if you have a friend or family member who can take her into the vet for you now. You can leave her outside in her crate, then your friend can pick her up and take her in.

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Oreo. I recommend that she sees her veterinarian. Inner ear infections result in vestibular signs such as loss of balance, circling and eye problems. If so, she will need oral antibiotics. In some cases, anti-nausea medications are prescribed as well. I hope this information helps!
