Hello,
Has anyone dealt with a heart murmur in a kitten? He is 16 weeks old and I took him to the vet for his checkup. I had noticed that he breathed a little heavier and faster than his brothers and seemed to be just a bit smaller.
He diagnosed him with a grade III murmur. Can anyone tell me what this means? He said he could live a fine and healthy life but may have repiratory problems.
The kitten (Cooper) seems to breathe heavily all the time and you can feel his little heart just pumping so hard. He is not as active as he was when he was younger. Sleeps a lot and has breathing that is a bit noisy.
What can I do for a kitten with a heart murmur? any suggestions?
Thanks!
