I adopted two 4-week old barn kittens a week ago (so now 5 weeks old), who are really healthy other than a raging ear mite infestation. I took them to the vet immediately and all is well (not even worms!) other than the ear mites. He cleaned their ears and gave me drops but the label on the bottle had been removed (when I checked out one of the staff commented that it must have "fallen off"). My receipt says they are Quadraclear, and looking at the Quadraclear website I believe that is correct.
BUT, also looking at the website, it says they are ONLY for dogs and NOT for use in cats. Has anyone here ever used Quadraclear drops for ear mites in cats? I've been putting these things in my kittens' ears for a week now and I'm terrified that I'm harming them. I'm scared to death to give them any more.
Does anyone know if these are safe for my kittens, and if not, do you have a suggestion of something I could quick buy via Amazon or Petco or someplace that would be safe and effective? I have other cats, so must get rid of the mites quickly, and the vet said that the kittens are too young for topical meds and whatever else he had available. Well, they may be too young for those, but they appear to be too feline for what he gave me!!! Please help!
