Re: Heart murmur

Got hold of the vet at last.
He says it is around a grade 3. I've emailed the new owner to tell her as much as I know and ask her to think about her options. If she doesn't want the kitten, we'll keep her here. Thanks for the advice.

Re: Heart murmur

Heard back from the new owner a few hours ago. She was still in two minds whether to take her and after discussing the various scenarios she asked me what I would do and I told her not to have her. We educate owners to only buy fit kittens, so I'm not going to exempt myself from that rule.

Here's our little murmur furball. Dollycats Ginger Pudding. Picture was taken a few weeks ago, but I think it's cute!

Re: Heart murmur

Awww, bless her, she's so cute. You've done the best thing Savannah, you've been open & honest You never know, her heart murmur will hopefully go in a few months and you can decide wether to keep her or not then. I love the name by the way it's fab, lol. Suits her too

Re: Heart murmur

One of my cats had a pronounced heart murmur which meant that he couldn't run very far and when out walking along the pavement he had to keep sitting down for a rest. But apart from that he led a happy life and enjoyed lying in the long grass in the garden watching the insects and birds. He was a very friendly and vocal cat and he enjoyed visiting the neighbours. So it was very sad when he had a heart attack and died aged twelve but up until then he was in good health and content.
