Professional pet groomers have specialized equipment to remove ear hair, but the novice may use nose hair trimmers to get the same effect. The noise of the clippers may scare the pet, so stroke him with the other hand and offer soothing words to calm them. 

Upon noticing this condition, the cat owner will need to "freshen" the feline. This can be best achieved by pouring baking soda under lukewarm running water into a large sink or washtub.
