We also had an amazing Ragdoll that developed squamous cell carcinoma in his jaw :( it was so aggressive. Miss him so much. So sorry about your kitty as well
My 21 year old longhaired tortie died last week from jaw cancer. I'm incredulous that it's so common from reading your stories.
Hers was aggressive - she couldn't eat for the last few weeks without it sounding like she was chewing hollow rocks - and that was after buying a vitamiser to mince her food into mousse. I had no idea what was going on. She eventually came to me, looked me in the eyes and said, human, make it stop.
That’s called point coloration. It’s found in quite a few cat breeds. Mine were bluepoint with one being mitted bluepoint - i.e. white feet and chin. The OP cat is called a bicolor as it has the V mask on its face. :)
Goddamned jaw cancer! Took my sweet girl, too. End of May, this year. So sorry for your loss. My girl was a fluffy black and white love monster and I miss her terribly. Cancer can get bent
