Think my 5 month old whippet caught the sun on his ears today. Only slightly red. Do you use sunscreen?!

Oh bless him! Only one of mine is fine coated enough for it to be an issue, and he doesn't stay in the sun long enough for it to be a problem. But I would use it if necessary - you can get specific animal sunscreen

Definitely use some. I used to have a white cat and he had to have his ears cut off due to skin cancer. I used to put it anywhere that could easily get caught.

We have some sunscreen wipes for the mutts. Can't remember the brand but we pick them up in the vets.

I used to on my Ginger and White cat, when he went out. Children's sunblock on his ears.
