Bayleigh was scanned this morning and is HCM positive. So far there's only moderate thickening in one one area.... I don't know if I can go through this again, but I know I don't get a choice
Thank you all for the kind words. Bayleigh isn't related to my other cats that passed away at all...just dumb luck that 3 of the 4 sphynx I've had have been positive. Ugh
I will do more research before I buy my next baby but the cardiologist today said she's had breeding cats as old as 12 test postive for the first time. That's so scary. There are so many bad things out there that can hurt our babies. I wish I could shelter them forever.
We're going with 6.5 mg Atenelol once a day for now. Hopefully we can get her to a point where it's "safe enough" to have anesthesia.... She needs dental surgery ASAP so that's a whole other can of worms to worry about Plus, I'm a worrier by nature. Sorry, just feeling bad for myself today.....It sure is nice to have this board and know that I'm not the only sphynx owner that's dealing with issues, whatever they might be. Thanks, all! You guys are the best!

I am so sorry! Poor Bayleigh! I feel embarrassed to ask this, but what is HCM? Is there not a vaccine for it?
