Question about heart murmurs

[Freedom]

I don't have any direct experience. You can google - heart murmur feline - and lots of info comes up.

Some sites say young kittens will have a heart murmur their first vet visit and 6 months later it is gone and no one really knows why. So that may apply to Neko.

Some cats live into their teens with no other symptoms or problems, other do develop other symptoms which are then treated (the symptoms, not the underlying issue).

I will give you this link, it is for a feline heart group on Yahoo. It came up on page 5 of my google search, so not eay to find. You may want to browse through that or even join and ask your question.

Giz was found to have a murmer, a gauge 3 and they did no testing except to monitor her blood pressure and do some blood work. She is on medication daily now and they have said nothing about any other tests, just bring her back for her annuals. I trust my vet since he know what frantic Meowmies we are and how quick I am to bring them in if I suspect ANYTHING is wrong. He could have ordered every test in the book and knows I would have paid for anything he said we needed.
