That's great news Kerry. I hope his ears don't have any more problems.

Thanks so much Kerry, Nina, Phaewryn, Sally and Susan---sorry if I
missed anyone---for diagnosing Mickey's condition and generally making me feel
a whole lot better on Sunday (and helping me make the decision NOT to go to
emergency clinic, where, apart from anything else, they are not particularly
nice to feral/semi-feral cats). I took Mickey to my own vet last night, he
confirmed it was hematoma (sp) and he drained the ear---ton of blood came out.
If it recurs he'll use the more elaborate (and expensive---that's what I love
abt my vet; he always tries the simpler and less expensive solution first)
procedure that involves both anesthetic and inserting a temporary drain device
in his ear. The trouble is Mickey's ear is still bent over -- perhaps not as
much -- so with him being semi-feral it's going to be tricky knowing if the
problem returns.
But at least for now we're ok---thanks again SO much everyone!
Kerry & Mickey

Subject: Re: question re Mickey's bent ear
Junior has this as part of his condition.
He has hematomas in both ears. The vet does not want to stress him by
draining them, so they are that way all the time. He has no infection or ear
mites. It must feel funny to him. He looks like a Scottish Fold kitty. His
ears are real fat. He does like to have them rubbed.
I remember a Tom Cat we had on the farm I had as a kid. He had the
cauliflower ears. I thought it was from fighting, but I now know it was
probably from ear mites.
