Original Note:
This is false, small animals such as cats and dogs do not respond to chemotherapy the same way that larger creatures do. The most commonly reported side effect for small pets is gastrointestinal discomfort, which can be managed with proper medication and diet changes. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2684058/ https://www.vet.cornell.edu/research-departments/institutes/sprecher-institute-comparative-cancer-research/treatment-strategies/managing-common-side-effects-chemotherapy-companion-animals
