(Not a Cat Question?)

My cat has ear mites and I am having a difficult getting rid of it. I also found little black spots on his tail and the tail is senitive. I shaved the tail and applied an antibiotic cream. Can ear mites attack the skin?

Dear friend,

The easiest way to get rid of earmites is with the monthly flea product Revolution.It is safe and easy to use and will kill fleas, worms and earmites. You can get it from your vet or at www.1800petmeds.com. This is much better then applying messy annoying poducts into his ears.

Ear mites do not attack the skin but he may have developed a little miliary dermatatis so just keep applying the neosporen to his tail.

Please let me know if you still have questions or would like to discuss this further. I wil be happy to help ina nay way possible.

Very sincerely,

Terri
