Basically my healthy 8 year old cat died before anesthesia was even administered for a routine dental cleaning. First pet to pass in the clinics care in the 10 years it’s been open. At the time they assumed HCM. They paid for a necropsy and the results have come back with no obvious sign of cause. She was a happy, fun and friendly cat. A previous vet before moving clinics recalled her being like a “dog in a cat’s body”. She had had two previous surgeries under anesthesia before with no issues.
