Hey, mama, bring me that Hawaiian Tropic 50, okay?

Well, mama came home yesterday and her hands looked like that frog I was talking about in another blog and papa (whom I did not recognize because he had no BEARD, whatever that is) was red as the proverbial lobster, which we do NOT have around here very often if at all and they had been to something called a dermo in French (short for dermatologist, whatever that is) to have thingies taken off that start showing up years after those dumb anthros spread themselves out like sun-dried tomatoes and slathered baby oil and iodine all over themselves and baked into beef jerky!!

NO, NO, NO!!!!!! Bad Anthro!

Serves them right, but evidently their muzzles and paws will heal and be back to normal in a week or so and then they’ll really have to be SMART…get that–S-M-A-R-T about going out in the sun without creams or hats (they haven’t done that for years but still…) and really think about the fact that the ozone layer is diminished and there is not the same protection as there was before for anthros, especially the ones with rosy skin.  Mama is a bit more olive-y but she has had problems, too.  I am going to learn to fetch soon.  Yes, yes I know kitties don’t fetch, but Mya is teaching me how to get their hats and bring them to their feet so that they won’t forget to COVER their muzzles and other parts against sun damage.

I guess there aren’t hats for hands, right?  Okay, okay sunscreen–EVERY DAY, you hear?

It’s either that or finger puppets on each paw.

Oh LouLou, we’re glad your momma and papa are okay. Dat sounds terribly painful. Mommy be a redhead, but she too did her fair share of crisco slatherin’ in her day. Now she has a big yellow sun hat and dark glasses and spf in a powder. And she doesn’t get out much in da sun. MOL We’re sendin’ hugs fur all and purrayers fur a speedy recovery.

Luv ya’

No worries here about using sunscreen. We haven’t had any sun here in so long it seems. Though today it does look a little brighter.

You can fetch gloves for their hands. Chimera is very good at fetching her ball, maybe we can teach her to fetch something a bit more useful.

We use Corel Paint Shop Pro X for our artwork. It’s a pretty old program so we don’t know if you can find it now.

Our coloring is done with the Recolor app you can find it free in the Google Store.

Ooooh – that’s what maman did here in Nice last week!! All those years on the beach in her misspent youth and – eek!!!! – wrinkles!!!! I told her that shar-peis were very “in” and she should flaunt it. I don’t understand why she she gave me that look of HORROR. Loulou, they just don’t get it – we have so much to teach them – if they would only LISTEN or at least observe. Non?

Hmmm … those finger puppets could work to your advantage Loulou 🙂
But surely you understand the joy of lounging in a sun puddle, right? Humans are kind of like that. Only we’re not nearly as cute doing it.

Ouch! I haven’t had a burn since my teen years, but I can remember the pain.

What cute finger puppets.We can’t wait for the pictures of you learning to fetch. That should be such fun and good exercise. Yes, your mama and papa should go easy on the sun. In spurts, okay?
