November Marks Fifth Annual National Pet Cancer Awareness Month

BREA, Calif., Oct. 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Cancer is not strictly a "human"
condition. As the No. 1 disease-related killer of dogs and cats, cancer claims
millions of pets each year. This November, Veterinary Pet Insurance Co. (VPI),
the nation's oldest and largest provider of pet health insurance, will seek to
increase awareness about the prevalence, detection and treatment of pet cancer
during its fifth annual Pet Cancer Awareness Month. To raise funds for pet
cancer research, VPI has partnered with the Animal Cancer Foundation (ACF) and
organized its third annual VPI K9K Pet Cancer Awareness Walk in Long Beach,
Calif. on Nov. 14. VPI also provides pet cancer detection tips and urges ACF
donations through the purchase of pet cancer awareness collars and wristbands
at www.petinsurance.com/cancer.
