He has heart disease which was identified at the time of him having his first clot. He takes frusemide, clopidogrel, fortekor and asprin every 72 hours. He has been scanned and his left ventricle doesn't vary much in size to his right which is apparently unusual. He is only 4 years old and leads a relatively normal cat life. Unfortunately I am always on tender hooks waiting for the next clot as I am aware that they tend to re-appear after 6 months and his first clot was 5 months ago.
