Feline leukemia is spread by direct contact between your cat and an infected cat by fighting or breeding, and so is more common in cats that are allowed to go outdoors unsupervised.

Leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma are considered to be related cancers because they involve the uncontrolled growth of cells with similar functions and origins.
The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society advocates public policy positions that accelerate progress toward cures for leukemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma.
Feline Leukemia affects the immune system as well but in general is much more deadly and much quicker acting as it does not rely on other infectious processes to kill.

Despite very encouraging results in some forms of lymphocytic leukemia and lymphoma there were some problems encountered in the use of the antibody in immunosuppression of rheumatoid arthritis patients.
Many leukemia and lymphoma patients cannot be cured because their cancer is resistant to contemporary chemotherapy protocols.
Leukemia was ruled out a day later after a bone marrow biopsy found no trace of cancerous cells.
