Generally, most cats have a small gap in their ears, which is a special structure of cat ears, called bag ears or Henry pouches. This structure allows cats to hear many high-frequency sounds that humans cannot hear, which is conducive to hunting in the wild environment and allows cats to accurately judge the location of their prey. Many animals in nature also have this special structure.
It should be noted that not all cats must have marsupial ears, and they may also be caused by injuries. Cats themselves are animals that like to be alone and do not like to be disturbed by other animals. When other species invade their territory or their own safety, they will cause conflicts. At this time, both sides will cause some damage, such as ear bites, causing cracks on the edges of the ears. If they are not treated in time, the wounds of the ears will generally form a permanent crack.
Also, animal welfare institutions in society now target stray cats. In order to prevent the spread of cats in society, they will undergo sterilization surgery and use a crack label on their ears as a reminder. Generally, stray cats with gaps on the left ear are male cats, while those with gaps on the right ear are female cats.
