The vet seems to think it could be hypertrophic cardiomyopathy as she doesnt hear the whooshing noise with every beat so its important that we get him xrayed asap as he will need his meds changed if so.
I think Im unlucky with pets as my dog has just been diagnosed with elbow displasia! My first kitty is 4 and she has never had to go to the vets thankfully! |
Hey KK - Audrey has hypertrophic cardiomyopathy too, one side of her heart isnt working so the other side is doing all the work
Our cardiologist has said there is no cure for it, the meds can only control it. Aud's now on 5 lots of tablets each day, which I know some people wouldnt want to do but no way can I have her put to sleep
The meds are giving her lots of energy and she's so playful at the moment bless her. She was given 3 months a month ago, but I reckon she's going to be here much longer than that!!
Hope the PDSA help you out, and that your kitty feels better soon xx
