Cats, cancer, glyphosate, and… Agent Orange?!
A viral social media comment claimed that glyphosates used on grains are "a version of Agent Orange" and blamed them for rising cancer rates in pets. But is that actually true?

In this episode of Cat Talk Radio, Molly DeVoss separates fear from fact and dives into:

  • what glyphosate actually is
  • why it is NOT Agent Orange
  • where the myth came from
  • the real scientific debate surrounding glyphosate
  • whether there's evidence linking pet food to cancer
  • why cats may be uniquely vulnerable to environmental toxins
  • how to reduce toxic burden without spiraling into fear-based thinking

This episode is all about critical thinking, balanced science, and practical ways to support feline health in a world full of alarming online claims.
