Cancer Cat

No, Cancer Cat isn't some awareness mascot desiged to promote awareness of feline leukemia and the like. Nor is it a youtube or general internet meme that people watch or play with to while away their days at work.

Cancer cat is a search term, often googled since cats are tragically suceptible to multiple forms of deadly cancer. If you have a cat, you know how attached people can get to the little buggers. If you have a cat with caner, you know that heartbreak of watching an animal you love suffer and, eventually, die.

I have two cats, and every time I walk by Petco or the ASPCA animal hospital I almost walk home with a third. I'd never had any pets before I lived in New York, but a few years ago my girlfriend strenuously demanded that we add to our family.

So we went to the aspca hospital and looked for a kitten. Unfortunately at the time, but fortunately in hindsight, we went right after Christmas. AS a result, there were no kittens to be found. So we went uptown to a kill shelter (didn't want to, but my girlfriend was in a bad way at work and needed a kitty to cheer her up) to look for a kitten to adopt. They had just one, a feral black male kitten who was frightened to death of people. We knew we could handle him, but we wanted a cat that wouldn't run away at the first sound. While we were debating, we went into the "cat" room - separate from the kitten room - and met our future daughter, who I christened "Wonton." She was the sweetest, prettiest calico you ever saw. As my girlfriend and I were debating whether or not to adopt the black kitten or wait a week for new arrivals, Wonton kept meowing and licking my girlfriend's hand as she scratched her head.

After about thirty seconds we both realized we'd fallen in love with this cat. So instead of waiting for a kitten, we took home a two year old who'd recently had a litter. It was not what we expected.

Wonton, now six, got herself a little sister a couple of years later. We actually got her the kitten, since she's so damn playful that we couldn't keep up. The two of them today tear around our apartment like demons, pounce us in the middle of the night, and generally fill our lives with every bit of joy that one could ever hope for from a pet.

Luckily both have been healthy. No cancer cat here, but we're always aware of the symptoms. If you have a pet, check out peteducation.com or the like, or go to the ASPCA and get some pamphlets, so that you can keep your family healthy and happy.
