Did you just adopt this cat? Is it on just one ear? If so, the double point, or V-tip cut is from the cat being Trapped/Neutered/released and was probably a stray at one point in time. Some vets will use the v-tip cut instead of the straight across tipping.They do this to ferals ears so a trapper will know by the ear tipping if the cat is already sterilized. If you have had this cat since a kitten, then I would assume it is from an injury of some sort.
