notched ear

A cut in a creature's ear from a past injury. Usually a triangular notch, but can also be a hole or a missing ear tip.

Most commonly seen in feral or outdoor cats, sometimes as a way of marking them as spayed, neutered, and/or vaccinated. It can also be seen in other animals as well, but may also be seen in characters with animal ears. Humanoid characters can also have them on their regular ears.
