Vaseline should work fine. Or you could also try Bag Balm, available at pet stores, WalMart, etc. Orginally developed for cow udders, it is now used on lots of things and even appears inbthe human aisles! Google "bag balm" for more info re what it is.

You are so good adopting these two and helping them get back into shape!
I use to use bag balm. They also wont lick it .. At least mine didnt, and I could results in days.
