The inner ear translates sound into nerve impulses for the brain, and maintains the balance of the body. There are three main sections:
- Cochlea: It is coiled portion and auditory portion of inner ear. It reacts to vibrations in various frequencies by sending neural impulses to the brain. The primary section is called the Organ of Corti, containing 15,000 to 20,000 nerve receptors.
- Semi-circular canal: Three fluid filled canals horizontal semi-circular canal, posterior semi-circular canal and anterior semi-circular canal are called semi-circular canals. The fluid inside these canals is called endolymph. The dilation at one end of canal is called ampulla. Ampulla contains Cupula and hair cells. Semi-circular canals are responsible for body balance and detect direction of rotation of head.
- Vestibule: It is located between the semi-circular canals and cochlea. Its anterior and inferior part has several minute holes for the passage of filaments of acoustic nerve (auditory nerve) to saccule. Saccule detects the motion of head when it moves vertically. At the upper and back of vestibule a structure called utricle detects the degree of tilt movement of head.
well the in the inside of your ear are lots of tiny hairs that pick up the sound. once damadged these cannot be replaced which is why listening to music with earphones damadges your hearing.
When you hear something, what you're actually doing is interpreting waves travelling through the air. What your inner ear does is interpret these waves into meaningful sound.

They have (inner) ears.
Equilibrium is what your ears control when it comes to staying balanced.
Dogs ears are pretty close to human ears. So the answer to your question is yes they can.
No, your cats' ears are not supposed to be all white inside. A healthy cat should have pink inner ears.
Pressure
They can leak in your inner ears, causing partial to full hearing loss, but only temporary loss.
