Do you have towels to donate??

🐾Looking to declutter your linen closet? 🐾

Your unwanted towels and blankets could make a big difference for our furry friends at Access Veterinary Care! 🐶🐱 Towels are used to keep patients clean and provide additional support when they're unable to support themselves. Blankets make patients more comfortable while they hang out with us or keep them warm after they've had surgery.

If you have any you’d like to part with, feel free to drop them by the clinic and give them a new purpose! Every bit helps and is greatly appreciated. 💕🏥

Heart disease in cats.
10/08/2024

Heart disease in cats.

Cardiomyopathy, literally means “disease of the heart muscle,” refers to primary diseases of this heart muscle itself, as opposed to diseases of the heart valves, blood vessels, and the tissue that conducts electrical activity through the heart. Feline cardiomyopathies can cause the heart muscle to become too thick, too thin, and/or inflamed. These changes in heart structure are commonly accompanied by a decreased ability of the heart to efficiently pump blood that can lead to congestive heart failure, paralysis-causing blood clots, and, in some cases, sudden death.

The cause of most feline cardiomyopathies is currently unknown, and many have been shown to be or are presumed to be genetically mediated. Some, however, occur secondary to other diseases such as hyperthyroidism, high blood pressure or inflammation within the myocardium.

With appropriate care, a cat diagnosed with cardiomyopathy may survive for years, depending upon whether congestive heart failure and/or thromboembolism occurs.
