Cleaning ears

[Wendy2303]

Should you clean inside piggies ears? If so, how? Our recently gone over the rainbow bridge girl had really mucky ears when we rehomed her, but she had other health issues we (and the vet) were trying to get on top of first so we never did anything with her ears, but I wondered for the future if it is something we need to watch for and deal with.

No you shouldn’t clean inside the ears routinely - it can do much more harm than good to do so.
(If an issue inside the ears crops, then always see a vet.)

You can wipe on the outside but in a healthy piggy they should be keeping the outside clean themselves so you shouldn’t really have a need to do so.
