Since it is caused by genes, it means that it is innate. There is no complete cure at all, only relief. There is a gene called "FD" in the cat's body. The function of this gene is to determine the state of the cat's ears and is also related to cartilage development. If it is a dominant gene, then the cartilage growth of this cat will be abnormal. The most obvious manifestation is that cats have droopy ears. If they are cats with recessive genes, then this gene belongs to "FDFD". And treatment takes a lot of time, money, and energy.
