Virbac Epi-Otic :: Ear Cleanser Review
*NOT AN AD*
Don't understand why I ever need to get my ears cleaned. Its one of those annoying stuff that promises to spoil what could have been a very pleasant day at home.
Mommy: "Have your forgotten what it felt like when your ears had mites?"
Hmmmm.... oh yeah, there's that ONE time, but it's over! Stop racking up history ma! You're turning one of those old naggy ladies who can't stop talking about the past! My ears are perfectly fine now. Don't believe me? Smell it!!
Anyways, evil witch still insisted on cleaning my ears. Whatever ma, do whatever you want. You suck the life force out of me and I have no energy to argue now.
Now that mommy has left the room, I'll 'fess up that I was just being difficult and making a fuss. Ear cleaning is not really that bad. I wouldn't do it for fun, but I will tolerate it for treats.
Mommy uses Epi-Otic from Virbac. It cleans very well, and is non-irritating. It dries well and leaves no yucky residue (unless you use too much, which mommy sometimes does cos she's wasteful like that). I'm not a fan of the smell but it is irritating me less now that I'm more used to it. Still, I'm sticking my tongue out at it.
Mummy pours a little cleanser onto cotton pads and rummages through my ears with the pad on her finger as though she is digging for gold, paying attention to crevices and folds of ear.
So, because I have relatively clean ears *beams*, I only have to use this cleanser only like once a month. Hence a bottle goes a long long way.
Tadah! My ear gunk!
