You can buy a general ear cleaner from most pet stores. If Zeus' ear has infection though, hebwill need veterinary treatment. Have him seen by your veterinarian. A simple ear swab can be looked at in the clinic to diagnose bacterial or yeast infection. Afterwards, the appropriate medication can be dispensed. He will likely need daily cleaning and medicating for 10-14 days to clear the infection.
