What is oral cancer in cats?
Different types of tumors can affect a cat's mouth, and the most common (accounting for over 75% of all types of oral tumors in cats) is oral squamous cell carcinoma. This is a tumor that affects the area around the teeth and gums, the roof of the mouth, or the tongue.
Other types of oral cancer in cats can also affect the tonsils, salivary glands, or bones of the mouth, but they are less common.
What causes oral cancer in cats?
Although it is not always possible to know what caused the development of cancer, links can be seen with environmental factors such as exposure to cigarette smoke and the use of flea collars.
Oral Cancer in Cats: Symptoms
Because this cancer affects the mouth, most pet owners notice changes in their cats' eating habits—a sign of oral cancer in cats. You should be on the lookout for the following symptoms:
- Excessive or increased drooling
- Difficulty eating or weight loss
- Unexplained tooth loss
- Red or swollen gums and mouth
If you notice any of these symptoms in your cat, be sure to get them checked out! While these signs don't always indicate cancer, it's important to take steps to get a diagnosis as soon as possible.
Oral Cancer in Cats: Life Expectancy and Stages
Unfortunately, the life expectancy of cats diagnosed with oral cancer is often short, from a few months to 1 year , depending on the location and severity of the cancer.
In the case of oral cancer in cats, if a tumor is visible in the mouth, the cancer has probably already affected the surrounding areas and is more advanced than it appears.
