Poor dear! Harold (who thinks she's pretty) sends headbutts.
I've had cats who've had terrible problems with ear mites. The hard bit is, of course, that their normal earwax is a bit dark too, so it's sometimes hard to tell in the early stages.
Has the vet said anything about swabbing her ears with mineral oil? I'm told it pretty well suffocates the mites and has the effect of loosening the debris.
