Good Afternoon, I have a white cat indoor cat. He has quite thin fur around his ears and I am concerned about him getting skin cancer. He does enjoy sitting in the sun on the window ledge. I was hoping to get some advice on cat suncream? I have looked online for advice and seem to only be able to find suncream for dogs. Are cats able to use this? I've also read baby suncream that is fragrance free and has no zinc is ok? Please can you offer your professional advice? Many thanks, Laura

Hi, yes I would definitely recommend to get some sun cream and you can try a sun cream for cats called Dermascent on Amazon UK or use baby suncream which is fragrance free and zinc free (I think I have used one from Boots before). Hope this helps !
