Here's something I hadn't heard.

"...In the study, Moore and other researchers at Tufts
and the University of Massachusetts say living in a
household with smokers considerably increases a cat�s
risk of acquiring feline lymphoma, which kills
three-quarters of its victims within a year...They
found that, adjusting for age and other factors, cats
exposed to second-hand smoke had more than double the
risk of acquiring the disease.
In households where they were exposed five
years or more, cats had more than triple the risk. In
a two-smoker household, the risk went up by a factor
of four."
