Thanks for all of the suggestions. My vet recommended Vitamin E
lotion. I do have Vit. E oil (bottled) but find it extremely messy.
I got some lotion yesterday and we're giving that a try. I had the
pharmacist check all the ingredients to make sure they were all safe
to ingest <g>. Cedes hates it, of course, and immediately starts
licking it off. So, I'm trying to tote him around for a while to give
the lotion a chance to soak in.

An added benefit is that my hands are softer and more moisturized
now.....
