Ear Polyp 8 Month Old

My 8 month old kitten Turk went into the vet due to some scratching around his face I was noticing.. When I first got him he had ear mites and it was hard to get rid of them so I am quite nervous about his ears. Anyway, the vet looked in his ears and noticed in one of them he had a VERY small polyp, she said that in order for them to go away it will require surgery but she didn't seem to worried right this moment about it..

My question is, should I get this surgically removed right away before it has a chance to grow or should I wait until it is presenting more of a problem for him? That sounds like a dumb question and normally I would rush him in to have it removed but the vet, whom I adore, didn't seem like it was much of a deal right now.

Heard him snoring today too. Vet didn't look in his mouth for polyps in the throat. Still wondering if it's more urgent than the vet made it out to seem....?

A polyp is simply a growth, or a tumor. It's usually entirely benign so I think that's why your veterinarian doesn't think it's urgent. You mentioned it's very small, so it sounds like it doesn't bother Turk in any way? I would wait too and see how quickly it grows. If it stays smallish and doesn't bother him, it might be best to avoid the trauma of anesthesia and surgery.

How bad is the snoring? Has it become worse? Even if he does have some kind of benign tumor/polyp in his throat it may not justify surgery at this point either. 

I would suggest calling your vet on the phone and letting her know you're still worried. Mention the snoring and ask if she thinks he needs to be seen again. A vet has some working knowledge with polyps and growths and the clinical experience to know when to worry and when to let these things be. Let us know what she says. If you're still not entirely happy with her answers, it's perfectly legitimate to see a different vet and get a second opinion too. Your peace of mind is important
