The neighbours cat has been coming over to our place for a few months. Sometimes I'd hand feed it, pat it and even pick it up and kiss it. I found out from the owners that its sick, it has cancer, and its getting to 20 years old. As I've come in contact with the cats saliva on my hand and my hand may have then gone to my mouth, I wanted to know if cancer in cats is contagious to humans. Thank you
Answer:
