An at-home ear swab kit that helps your vet check for infection—so you can start treatment sooner and prevent it from becoming a chronic issue.
Use this if your cat or dog has redness, odor, discharge, or is shaking their head—and you want to check for infection without a vet visit.
What it is:
A mail-in ear test that checks for bacteria, yeast, mites, and signs of inflammation—so your vet can confirm whether your cat or dog has an ear infection and choose the right treatment.
Why it matters:
Ear infections can get worse fast—and the longer you wait, the harder they are to treat. This kit lets you swab your pet’s ear at the first sign of a problem and send it to a lab, with results going straight to your vet. It’s especially helpful if your cat or dog gets frequent infections or struggles with vet visits.
How it works:
Use the included swabs to collect a sample from your pet’s ear, register the kit online, and send it to the lab with prepaid overnight shipping. Your vet receives a detailed lab report—usually within 1 business day—which includes analysis for yeast, bacteria, mites, and inflammation.
Key Differentiator: It also checks for Pseudomonas—a hard-to-treat bacteria that many clinics don’t screen for unless infections keep returning. This kit includes it automatically, so your vet can start the correct treatment immediately.
What’s included:
✔ Two sterile ear swabs with transport media
✔ Gloves for clean handling
✔ Prepaid overnight shipping
✔ Lab cytology with photos and detailed results
✔ Detection of yeast, bacteria, mites, and Pseudomonas
✔ Results shared with your vet in 1 business day
Best for:
• Suspected ear infections
• Dogs with recurring ear issues
• Fast-tracking diagnosis to begin the right meds sooner
• Dogs sensitive to clinic visits or hard to transport
