When we are troubled by trivial matters or work issues in life for a long time, it may cause some diseases, and heart disease is relatively serious. However, most heart diseases are inherited. When we have heart disease, of course, the first thing is to go to the hospital for treatment or surgery. But what should we do if our pet cat has heart disease? We may not have encountered what heart disease looks like in animals, so today we will learn about the symptoms of heart disease in cats.

When animals are sick, veterinarians come to diagnose and treat them, but heart disease in animals is a matter that requires more care from veterinarians, especially cats. Because heart disease in cats has a much higher mortality rate compared to other animals, and generally, people cannot easily see when a cat has heart disease. We all know cats are relatively introverted animals; many times they act alone, unlike dogs who cling to their owners for playtime. When a veterinarian discovers that a cat has heart disease, it usually means the heart disease is very serious, and the cat’s heartbeat will also accelerate significantly.

If a cat has heart disease, it will start to moan due to pain, but a cat’s moaning is not very different from its usual vocalization, so it is hard to hear anything unusual. Cats may also develop a fever due to heart disease, but this is also very difficult for owners to sense. Many animals’ moods are affected when they have heart disease, and their behavior becomes lethargic, while cats’ usual behavior is already relatively listless. So once a cat has heart disease, both owners and veterinarians find it very hard to notice any unusual signs in the cat.

To avoid our cats contracting some diseases that cannot be seen with the naked eye, owners should regularly take their cats to the hospital for check-ups and vaccinate them regularly to enhance their resistance. Cats and dogs have relatively fragile constitutions and are difficult to recover once sick. Owners should also pay attention to details in daily life, as these pets are easily infected by bacteria, and pet diseases are caused by infections.
