We have checked at the pet supply places around here and at Wal-Marts
and cannot find ear mite medicine for cats.  We have some for dogs...

...will it work without hurting kitty?

Thanks.

When in doubt, don't bother to medicate. I know you probably don't
need to hear this, but I think you need to check with your vet & ask
if they could issue you with a prescription for your cat's. If you use
the dog stuff, you could end up with a terrible vet bill if it all
goes south, so for the sake of a few dollars, get the right stuff is
my advice.
Good Luck!

Oh no, this was definitely helpful.  I was going on the first thing
you said for the time being.  "When in doubt, tough it out."

Honestly, we (really my spouse, they were put in charge of calling
the vet) forgot to call before the weekend.  I have made a note to
ask in the meantime so hopefully we will not forget again.

Thanks for the feedback, Sheelagh >"o"<.
