I have a 2 month old kitten. Her name is Sofia and she’s the sweetest. She’s high maintenance though, very. That’s why her name is Princess Sofia. I rescued her from someone who found her under there house. When I got her she was about 3 or 4 weeks. I got her shots already and she was wormed but I’m concerned about her ears. She has really dirty ears. She scratches them occasionally but it’s not very much. Nothing that concerns me. Is that normal for a kitten? They are not dirty enough to be ear mites not at all. But they are dirty, I have to clean them every other day. She has no signs of having ear mites so I haven’t token her to the vet. The dirt is like a dark brown and it’s usually in the same ear, it’s her left. Any advice would be helpful, she is getting used to me cleaning her ears but she still isn’t a fan.

Are you sure it's not ear mites? They look like dirt in the ear and after you wipe it away it comes right back.
