Did you know that heartworm disease is a serious disease that can
affect cats of all ages and breeds? If you own a cat like the Japanese
Bobtail then you might want to talk with your vet about heartworms and
ways to protect your cat. Heartworm disease is caused by a large worm or
heartworm that can invade the heart, lungs and blood vessels of your
Japanese Bobtail. Unlike dogs, your Japanese Bobtail may only have one
to three worms present in her body. If cats do have heartworms they are
most likely to have no adult worms. However, the worms can still cause
damage to your cat’s health by causing a heartworm associated
respiratory disease also known as HARD. Medication used to treat
heartworms in dogs is also not effective in cats. The most common form
of protection against heartworms is a monthly prevention program.
