I don't think we have a troll here. The email addy is real, and the problem
is realistic, too, so I wouldn't worry. Actually, I was thinking exactly the same today. We had nearly 40 Deg C on the Gold Coast of Australia today (our summer), and my Xena (not white but very pale still) was outside. I was wondering, if there was a sunscreen that I could use on her (especially her 'bold spots') and that she wouldn't lick off. Hope someone can help, Regards, Andr0 "MaryL" -OUT-THE-LITTER wrote in message ... "US" wrote in message ... Does anybody know of any good sunscreens or zincs that can be used on animals (a cat)?

Squamous cell carcinomas -- malignant tumors that arise from the squamous epithelium of the skin of the pinnae, are common in cats with white or light-colored fur and skin and have a high exposure to sunlight. The only effective treatment is usually aggressive surgical excision. SCC is a very invasive and particularly nasty tumor. Some people tattoo their cats' pinnae to prevent the development of SCC. Tattooing seems to be preferable and more effective than constantly applying sunscreens. Phil |
