Pet Care — cat ear sensitivity

Cats have a well-earned reputation for independence. They groom meticulously, manage their own coats with impressive efficiency, and generally give the impression of having everything under control. It's one of the things that makes them such appealing companions — low maintenance, self-possessed, quietly competent. But there are limits to what even the most diligent cat can do for themselves.
