What are the clinical signs of feline heartworm disease?
The clinical signs of heartworm infection in cats can be nonspecific and can take the form of respiratory, gastrointestinal or occasionally, neurological manifestations. These respiratory signs may be transient and resolve in a couple of days. Feline heartworm infection may mimic other feline diseases, which makes diagnosis by clinical signs alone difficult. These clinical signs, such as intermittent coughing, asthma-like signs, chronic respiratory disease/respiratory distress or vomiting have all been associated with heartworm infection.
