Now Cats Protection has issued advice to owners, warning them of the dangers of letting cats lounge about in the sun. "Most people are great cat owners and would be mortified if their cat got cancer due to what technically is their lack of education," she said. "Pale-coloured cats like Smurf are particularly at risk, or indeed any cats that have unpigmented white noses or ears. Owners are recommended to keep their pet indoors when the sun is at its hottest, and speak to a vet about suitable sunscreen for their animal. They should provide plenty of shade for pet cats when they are outdoors and ensure they have enough water.
