No suggestions I'm afraid but when I read that in a geordie accent it sounds like foreskin.

Just thought I'd share that.

I thought they were outdoor animals.

Anyways, see if that sticky stuff I mentioned is still available, check their website out it will tell you what it does and dosent shift and what it can be used on.

One last question: Your cats name?

Cats hate citrus, it's used as a deterrent. As they groom with their tongues I'd advise not putting this on his fur unless you can thoroughly wash him afterwards.

I would just leave him to it, personally. The heat you would have to put on him to try and get it out isn't worth the potential harm it could cause him if you accidently scold him, ect.

It'll come out on it's own eventually. x

Cats are fussy, they'll be expecting gin and ice with their lemon!

Data sheet for 'sticky stuff remover' said it may cause Eczema, so I wouldnt stick it on Alfie.

I reckon you should shave that pussy as mentioned many times before

Don't what ever you do put heat near wax on fur! It will spread the wax and cause even greater problems.

Clip out what you can then when he's calm gently rub some sunflower or vegetable oil into the skin, trying to get as close to the body as possible. Eventually the wax will slip off the hairs. The oil is safe and he will clean the residue off himself.

Good luck

Have you tried Google? I wouldn't risk a cat cleaning himself incase he swallowed the wax. That's just my opinion tho and whilst I love my animals I'm no expert so as someone else suggested might be best to ring a vet for advice. Good luck!

Yankee tart wax is non-toxic. Use a bristle brush to take off as much as you can, and as had been said above - wipe area with olive oil or similar. He'll lick off the rest.
