Ear Mites in Cats
  • The ear mite is a surface mite that lives on
    cats, dogs, rabbits . It is usually found in the
    ear canal but it can also live on the skin
    surface. The entire ear mite life cycle takes
    place on animals. Ear mites, clinically known
    as Otodectes cynotis, are a small crab or
    spider-like parasites that survive inside the
    cats ears.

How Does This Work?
  • Calendula Also known as, pot marigold, this herb
    has natural anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory
    properties. Apart from killing the parasites,
    calendula is highly effective in healing the
    wounds. The oil works because of two essential
    compounds in them, which arerutin and narcissi.
  • They assist in regenerating an antioxidant
    called glutathione, which in turn stops the
    inflammation and replaces the damaged skin cells.
    Also, the soluble sterols repair the skin while
    the linoleic acid acts as an anti-inflammatory
    and soothes the discomfort.

  • Mixture Of Rosemary Olive Oil
  • Take equal quantities of thyme oil, rue oil, and
    rosemary oil.
  • Mix them into organic olive oil in 5050 ratios.
  • Use a dropper and pour a few drops of the
    prepared solution into the ears.
  • Apply the remedy every day for a week for best
    results.

How Does This Work?
  • Rosemary This herb acts as a flea repellant
    thus, helps in getting rid of the parasites
    naturally. When diluted and applied topically on
    the cats skin, it is reported safe but make sure
    the cat doesnt lick the area.
  • Rosemary exhibits antiseptic, analgesic, and anti-
    inflammatory properties. The active chemical
    compounds in rosemary include borneol, camphene,
    linalol, cineole, camphor, resin, pinene,
    rosmarinic acid, and tannins.

  • Conclusion
  • These Home Remedies will assist in regenerating
    an antioxidant called glutathione, which in turn
    stops the inflammation and replaces the damaged
    skin cells. Also, the soluble sterols repair the
    skin while the linoleic acid acts as an
    anti-inflammatory and soothes the discomfort.
