Sun protection
The hair of cats, dogs and horses protects their skin from the UVA and UVB radiation of sun. Animals with light colored hair get sun burnt easier than darker colored animals. Light colored animals that are at risk of getting sun burnt, should be covered entirely eg. with a rug and/or avoid direct sun light.
The limited affected skin areas like muzzle, pastern, legs and brand marks can be protected with sunscreen lotion. In northern Europe the recommended Sun Protection Factor should be at least +30, in order to protect the animal from daily sun shine. Using a high SPF is especially important with horses as they can be outside on a pasture 24/7. Protect the skin of your animal early, prior it getting sun burned. Sun burned skin can be very painful and it is a risk factor for skin infections. If unsure, a veterinarian can advice you on the correct treatment for sunburns.
Good sun screen lotion is easily spread, waterproof, protects both from UVA- and UVB radiation and does not leave greasy surface on the skin surface, which would collect dirt. The sun screen lotion of cats, dogs and horses should have pH around 7.
