I took my old cat to the vet yesterday. This new young vet was immediately trying to push me toward all kinds of extra vet services to help my aging cat, which I refused. She then said my cat had a fairly significant heart murmur which could be HCM
Well, she didn't know who she was talking to!
She informed me that I should have all kinds of special tests on my cat and if I didn't comply my cat would possibly suffer "sudden death". I told her that I have HCM and I think think sudden death is a good way to go. She was very aggressively trying to push me toward all kinds of services I didn't want, so later I said that the cat is happy and living an active life mostly out of doors and I had no intention of patientizing her and changing her lifestyle as long as she continued to be able to handle it.
It's obvious the racket this lady was trying to run on me, but I wonder, Do cats have HCM????
