Product Information

Full details

Aniwell FiltaBac Antibacterial Sunblock Cream is designed for pet owners, equine handlers, and exotic animal keepers who need a dual-purpose solution for skin protection and wound care. This versatile cream provides essential sun protection with an SPF of 29-33, acting as a functional barrier against UV rays, while simultaneously soothing irritated skin and supporting healing. While it is an excellent multi-functional tool for farm and household pets, users should note that consistent reapplication is necessary for maximum sun protection, just as with any topical skin care product.

FAQs

Is this product safe if my animal accidentally ingests it?

While it is designed for external use, a small amount is generally not harmful; however, you should always prevent your pet from licking the treated area to ensure the product remains effective.

How often should I reapply the cream for sun protection?

For optimal UV protection, reapply the cream every few hours or after the animal has been sweating or exposed to water.

Can I use this on deep or surgical wounds?

FiltaBac is designed for superficial wounds and skin irritations. Always consult your veterinarian for deep wounds, surgical incisions, or signs of severe infection.

Does it provide total UV blockage?

It provides an SPF of 29-33, which is high protection, but it does not provide 100% UV blockage. Keep animals out of peak sun where possible.

Is it safe for use on sensitive skin?

Yes, it is formulated to soothe irritation, but always perform a small patch test on the skin first to check for any individual sensitivities.

Can this be used on cats?

While designed for horses, dogs, and exotic pets, please consult your veterinarian before using any topical products on cats as they have unique skin sensitivities.

Troubleshooting

Cream is too hard to spread

Warm the tube in your hands for a few seconds; the body heat will soften the cream, making it easier to apply.

Animal keeps licking the product off

Try applying the cream while the animal is eating or distracted. If necessary, use a protective bandage or Elizabethan collar to allow the cream to absorb fully.

Pros and Cons

  • Easy to apply and absorbs quickly into the skin
  • Acts as a protective barrier against bacteria
  • Safe for a wide range of animals including horses and dogs
  • Effective at soothing skin irritation from heat lamps

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use Aniwell FiltaBac, ensure the animal's skin is clean and dry before application. Gently smooth the cream over the affected area, ensuring an even layer for sun protection.

  • Compatibility: This cream is safe for use on most mammals and exotic pets. However, always perform a patch test on a small, non-sensitive area if the animal has a history of allergies.
  • Care: Store the container in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the SPF properties. Keep the lid tightly sealed when not in use to prevent the cream from drying out or becoming contaminated.
