All My Dogs of Cancer
Anyone hear about a lot of pets dying of cancer in our area? I have lived in Oak Hill (Independence) for 27 years, and all three of my dogs have died of stomach cancer. Now, I have a cat dying of cancer. Lost four other cats over that span, but I do not believe any of them died of cancer. Apparently, Warren County is near the top for cancer deaths among humans in the state, which surprises me. So, do we have a problem with cancer in this area, or am I just angry due to grief?
RC The same company that sells you lawn chemicals also sells you cancer medication. The public has been lied to.
Not sackI took our Ziva for a bath at Mansfield pet store. The towels were stinky but is was all they had. A week later I noticed a small patch of missing fur. Our vet said cancer but all of her hair fell out and was replaced with bloody lesions. She was a rescue

OnTheEdge I live near Target in Hackettstown. My cat died of nasal cancer 10 years ago. I don't really know of other pets who got cancer in this area, but you've certainly had a lot of pets die from it and I would be wondering, too.
Joyce I live in Sussex and my dog died of cancer. Could there be a connection. I also have a friend who lives in Morris county. His cat died of cancer age 19. Scary stuff
Meeee Buy spring water in bottles for all your pets.
don't let them walk in a pesticided lawn.
feed organic food.
keep your cats IN the house, don't let them be p/t outdoor cats!!
Hackresident Hackresident - actually bottled water is not safe for your pets - or people. It is filled with hundreds of chemicals and microplastic particles. Filtered tap water is the better option.
For humans, Warren County is not a cancer cluster. Not as good as Eastern Counties but much better than South of us.
