Difficult to say as it does not happen frequently. It can cause irritation/inflammation of the ear canal. I would recommend to have Nala checked if starts scratching her ears or shaking her head or if she shows any sign of discomfort there. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
