Bonnie,

Lymphoma Sarcoma is what finally killed my Patches. He was felv+ (unbeknownst to
us) and when he was really sick at the end, we were told he had lymphoma in the
small intestines and it would be kindest to put him down. That's what prompted
me to the list. I've never heard of a rabies shot giving lymphoma, but have
heard of injection site sarcomas, which may be related. Sorry I don't know more
though.
