Also, his ears are really fluffy and I don't want the duct tape to accidentally get stuck on his fur. So if any one has any other suggestions, maybe something that won't be as noticeable for Westin, they would be much appreciated.
I use the white adhesive tape (medical) and just roll the ear into a little "devil's horn" and tape around the base. You can continue further up if the ear needs more support, as as Debbie says those with heavy ear leather will need more support.
