Yes, Yes, not only kitten buyers are faced with this, but the breeders themselves, unfortunately. Therefore, the health issue of parents of my kittens is of paramount importance to me.
Every year I check my adult cats for cardiomyopathy-HCM. Since I myself had encountered this disease not by hearsay, and I know what it is and how painful it is to lose your favorite animals. Each male and female of my cattery My Gremlins after reaching the age of 1 year is checked for cardiomyopathy ANNUALLY until the end of his breeding work.
You should know that the sphynxes are susceptible to this serious heart disease, and examinations in this area are mandatory for everyone, even if there are no symptoms and indications.
