Second Hand Smoke and Your Pets

posted by laura4592 on 3:16 am

Some studies have shown that second-hand smoke can cause leukemia (a type of cancer) in cats and that dogs in smoking households have a greater risk of cancer. And your furry friends don’t just inhale smoke; the smoke particles are also trapped in their fur and ingested when they groom themselves with their tongues.

My poor babies.. Hopefully the damage can be undone.

If it can be undone for us, I'm sure it can be undone for them.

BooBoo Girl (my cat) is so much happier now that I have quit smoking. She has taken to laying on the table where my ashtray used to be! I had never thought about the fact that she was ingesting it when she was grooming - I feel so bad :(

Think of it this way, angel. She;s getting healthier with you.
