Is his left ear always folded down and the right one always up (as in the third pic of the 1st post)?
Yes, it is now always folded. He had a large hematoma that showed up on his ear, and during the process of the Vet initially draining it without surgery, then it coming back, and then having to go through surgery anyway, it really messed up the cartilage in his ear. So now it folds over, but I think it gives him a bit of character.
Thanks for all the compliments, I will be sure to pass them on to Bear!!

My cats here really like to cuddle with him (much to his dismay) but he tolerates it well...LOL. Just gets up and moves when he has had more than enough.
