One of my cats and another dog I had both died of cancer. It's scary that it's so common among pets, but I wonder how much of it is that, like us, their lifespans have been expanded quite a bit compared to what it would be in the wild thanks to the care we give them and this allows cancer to become a leading cause of death. of course if it is becoming more common in recent years, that's less likely to be an explanation. I'm loving all these pet stories!
