Pet Sun Cream Awareness
Did you know? Human suncream is toxic to our pets. Don’t worry though, pet safe suncream is available to protect your pets from sunburn. We would recommend applying pet safe suncream to any parts of your pet that has pink skin showing on sunny days if they spend time outside - white or black and white cats with white ears are a prime example! Unprotected continued exposure to the sun can lead to skin cancer
