Cat Cancer Trial
Cats may develop virtually any kind of cancer that humans face. Thank you, one and all, for responding to my 9-30 blog about Kiwi the cat. I heard from Linda that the organization received enough funds for the cancer treatment, yay!
Here’s another resource for owners with cats needing medical help. The North Carolina State University College of Veterinary Medicine offers a funded clinical trial for cats suffering from abdominal cavity lymphoma.
Your primary care veterinarian needs to evaluate if your kitty qualifies for the study, and then enroll the cat. Several of the tests at the beginning and end of the treatment period are covered. Enrolled patients also receive a $1320 credit towards the cost of radiation treatment.
If you have a cat diagnosed with lymphoma, check out this website, print out the information and take it to your veterinarian. And be aware that veterinary teaching hospitals around the country often conduct trials that may offer reduced or low cost treatments for your cats or dogs.
