It is not necessary that patients with High level of calcium should have cancer in their body. In fact only patients of some cancers will develop hypercalcaemia (name for high Calcium levels) and will be difficult to treat cancer. Here first hypercalcaemia has to be treated to have better treatment results of cancer.

Why don't you go to the Pet section. These are serious questions about cancer in humans - not about cats.
