It is still a fatal disease if not treated, but now, for the first time, we are starting to see cats survive this horrendous disease. At last we have a promising treatment for this viral disease.

Heart disease in cats is EXTREMELY common but quite underdiagnosed in cats. The most common heart condition in cats is called hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, this is shortened to HCM. HCM can lead to heart failure, among other consequences which I will tell you about in this video. This was a difficult video to film, unfortunately there are no good things to say about HCM or heart failure in cats - I went and hugged my cat tight after this one. Please also watch the video I have made about counting your cat's resting respiratory rate at home, this is especially relevant if you have a cat with HCM or heart failure.

If you have a cat with a heart condition or if your cat is on medication for heart failure you should consider counting their respiratory rate at home. This simple monitoring in the comfort of your own home may help you to catch any change in their condition before it becomes a life threatening crisis for your cat. This is so simple to do, with one pitfall that I will outline for you. You can start today!
