Ear mites in cats cause extreme discomfort, and can lead to much more serious conditions if left untreated. Mites should be treated with a product made specifically for that purpose. Most miticides are formulated in one of two ways: a bit more dilute solution which is instilled in the ears every day for about 10 days, or a stronger solution that is used every 2 days for about a week (about 3 treatments). Treatment is geared to the reproductive cycle of the mites, so as to catch those that hatch between treatments. Your vet can recommend one. Using vegetable oils might drown a few mites, but won't get rid of them, and could put the cat's health at risk. The oil belongs in a salad dressing, not in the delicate workings of a cat's ear :o)
