            Maggie May
            
      Maggie May was a very beautiful brown tabby with white Maine Coon.  We 
bought her from an excellent Maine Coon cattery and for 14 years she was a
 strong healthy girl.  She never got sick unless she got too close to 
chemicals when the windows were open.  She spent all her time indoors 
except for Vet trips in the car,  She went in or a dental around her 14th
 birthday, had one tooth removed and seemed fine.
A few months later 
she came down with lymphoma.  We are still baffled,  she had tested neg 
for Felv and Fiv.  She had Chemo treatments an went into remission, but 
it hid in her bones and came back like gang busters a few months later. 
 We got nealy 3 months of quality time with her thanks to Chemo, but we 
still don't understand how such a healthy, strong girl like Maggie could
 have left us so fast.  She was only 14 1/2 years old.  We miss her 
terribly and still wonder if that dental had something to do with this. 
 The Vet who did her dental, her cat came down with lymphoma the same 
week as Maggie.  Could there have been a connection?
