The doctor said something about having an ear ,hematoma and he needed ear surgery LONG time ago, but it got worse, causing his ears to complete fold in.

Surgery is no longer needed bc it turned into scar.

But since he never got surgery, his ears were always itchy, and he would scratch himself a lot to the point he would bleed. Since he would scratch himself so much he got so much dirt inside his ear, which now he has an ear infection on both ears

I thought he was a Scottish fold! They have cute folded ears that look like his. I’ll be praying the infection clears up soon and that his maddeningly itchiness goes away! 🫶🏻🙏🏻
