My dear little cat was put to sleep due to throat cancer, yep she lived in a house with TWO heavy smokers- seems likely to me it came from inhalation.

Members,

Topic: Myth or Fact?
 
Myth: Smoking in the in the house and car is only affecting me.

Fact : Non-smokers who live with smokers (including kids) have two to three times the risk of cancer as non-smokers who live in a smoke-free house.  In the US alone, an estimated 35,000 nonsmokers die from coronary health disease as a direct result of exposure to secondhand smoke.
