I use a childs sunblock when I can actually get it on Darwins ear and nose. I was told some time ago this was safe. ;)

I used a kids one too, just wanted to say :luck:  :evillaugh:

Riley is a very placid cat, I can scoop him up, flip him onto his back and hold him in my arms upside down and bench press him into the air and he doesn't even flinch. Trying to smear a bit of suncream onto his nose is a different matter  :tired:

we have a method now, shut all doors and make sure window is shut (she escaped out of it the other day), pippa distracts her while i try to do her ears, pick her back up/get her down from where shes run of to. pippa attempts distraction again while i go for the nose, cat gets away and hides under table, me and pippa covered in sunblock and cat fur, cat may have a slight smear on her body somewhere, most likely her black patches  :rofl: :rofl:

This is easy peasy.  Don't know what all the fuss is about  :-: 

OH gets a grip of Boris and I shake the bottle and squirt some on my left hand and apply to one ear and then the other and then give some Dreamies to distract him from trying to wash it off. 

Simples  :)

Mmmmm now's where 's Boris gone?  :-:

Boris .............  Bobo .............. come here baby ...............  :shify: :shify: :shify:

Mmmmmmmmmm  ;)
