My mother's cat went into Congestive heart failure about a year and a half ago and she is still with us. There are a fair number of us on here that have dealt with cats with this condition. Please do not hesitate to start a thread of your own if you have any questions or just need some support.
Heartworm disease in cats is a bit different than in dogs. Heartworms in cats do not live as long (average lifespan is only two to three years) or grow as long, and fewer of them mature into adults. Worm burdens are much lower in cats, with the average being only one to three worms.ats typically show symptoms of heartworm disease at two time points â when the immature heartworms arrive in the heart and lung arteries and when the adult heartworms die.
