Lymphoma - Male Cat Or Female?, Survey Options

[Snickster]

I'm kind of on a personal fact-finding mission. I read somewhere that male cats are more likely to develop lymphoma than females. My Inky was a male.

Since I'm going to be getting a new kitten shortly, I was wondering if you all would mind telling me what gender your cats were that you lost due to lymphoma.

Thanks. This may prove interesting, if nothing else.

I had a female scottish fold who died of lymphoma. My Bubba died of cancer this past dec. his cancer went so fast that he fell very ill rapidly. I don't think Bubba had lymphoma. Bubba had deteriorated so quickly that the vet gave us one last chance to try to save him and he went in to see what was killing him. He had cancer on his spleen and kidneys so I had to let him go. Very very sad day........
