, Author, knows too much about heart disease from personal experience. 1  If space aliens bombed all the pharmaceutical factories and we had to go back to herbs, Coleus forskohlii (Indian coleus) would act as a natural beta-blocker, whether or not it was used for hypertension or cardiomyopathy.
Heartworm prevention is recommended, and may cost up to $40. The cat should also be checked out by a vet, to make sure there are no problems; the vet bills may be between $50 (for a simple check up) to $300 for advanced tests, if these are needed.
I spend on average $50 a month on commercial cat food, meat, litter, and other cat needs. Toys and the extras not included of course. Just to see the vet costs $50+ Is my cat needs blood work and medication it can be $150-$400 depending on the need.
