3 days ago I noticed that one of Lilly's ears the tip of it is bent down just slightly compared to what it should be . Instead of standing straight up the very tip looks abit dropped ,droopy barely so you'd notice. I have looked at it closely no sign of any injury scratch cut ect. She doesn't mind me touching it .It doesn't appear like it hurts at all. Shes in perfect health no changes and she is inside only. I'm stumped anyone have any ideas why a perfectly normal healthy inside cats ear would all of a sudden have this happen?

Could she have hit it on something when she was playing? Make sure that there's still blood flow to the end of the ear and that the tissue is ok, aside from that I'm not sure what to suggest.

I have checked the ear very carefully. There is no sign of any type of injury at all. I do think that there is blood flow its warm and doesn't bother her at all. Its just the very tip at the point that just looks drooped. Its very odd. At first I thought it was a tuff of fur making it appear that way but thats not it.
I suppose I should let the vet take a look at her tommorow..Just to be safe
