Well... this is a new one for me. My male persian has always had chronic ear problems with yeast, infections, etc... We've been dealing with it for years and after a few days on the meds it always clears up. This time around, there seems to be a strange rattling noise coming from his ear. Kind of hard to describe, but I've never heard this before. It is definitely a rattling/crackling noise. I not only hear it when he shakes his head, but I even hear it when he yawns. We went to the vet yesterday and she was not able to find anything. He is acting fine, and doesn't seem to be bothered by it at all. I can rub the ear, touch it, put drops in it, so he's not in any pain. Just very bizarre... I was wondering if anybody else has experienced this. I thought maybe it was a buildup of fluid from the ear drops he is currently on, but he has been on ear drops on and off for 8 years now and I've never experienced this.
