Consult with your vet to find out learn how the disease works, symptoms to look out for, and ways to protect your cat. One of the most common forms of protection is prevention. Ask your vet to test your American Wirehair for heartworms on a yearly basis. A simple test can detect the presence of the disease. If your bobtail tests negative then you should place your cat on a monthly preventative program for heartworms.

Heartworm disease often goes undiagnosed in cats because of lack of visual symptoms. Learn more from your animal hospital Lewisville, TX.
