I’ve been a cat owner since 2010. Izzy came to join our family back in 2010 when we first moved in to our flat together. Izzy was offered to us free, by an old friend of my husband, right at a time we were debating getting a pet. It seemed like fate. Later on we learned that Izzy has a big heart problem, and a heart murmur that is at the top end of the severity grades. Anyway, this has meant numerous expense over the years (as she was born with the condition it couldn’t be insured) but we love her so we soldier on. Recently I had my first experience of taking my cat to the vet for an emergency.
