9 week - itchy ear.

[Sadachara]

Hello all,

I noticed my 9 week has a bit of an ear itch. It's not constant, she has bouts where she will scratch at it, then lick her toes, and scratch at it again. But it is not constant, and really just random times of the day.

I took some extreme closeup photos of the inside of her ear as best that I could.

Thoughts?

Well the "scratch, lick toes, scratch again" is how they clean their ears, and that is normal. But if there is something in the ears, if it is concentrated on just one side, that is not normal. Is the black in the center of the pic some kind of black residue or is that some kind of photographic artifact?

I don't really see any residue, her ears actually look pretty clean.

I will try to examine it closer later today and maybe get some better photos.
