Sphynx cats often accumulate wax in their ears due to the lack of hair. It’s best to clean their ears every 1-2 weeks using a gentle pet ear cleaner and cotton pad. Avoid using Q-tips, as they can push wax deeper into the ear canal.
You should clean your Sphynx cat’s ears once a week to prevent wax buildup and ear infections. Here’s a quick overview:
| Frequency | Details |
|---|---|
| Weekly Cleaning | Clean your Sphynx cat’s ears weekly using a cat-safe ear cleaner and cotton balls or pads. Regular cleaning helps prevent ear infections and keeps wax under control. |
| Signs for Additional Cleaning | If you notice excess wax, a foul odor, or your cat scratching its ears more frequently, consider cleaning more often or consult your vet for advice. |
| Avoid Over-Cleaning | Over-cleaning can irritate the ear canal, so stick to a weekly schedule unless your vet advises otherwise. |
