Thanks for your reply regarding the high amylase value in my cat. I know I'm just a little over protective because my other kitty had a heart attack and she had no clinical symptoms of cardiomyopathy before it happened.

I haven't given vaccines since my cats were kittens back when I didn't know any better! But that was over 10 years ago.

I currently give my cat 1/4 cup of dry food (California Natural Chicken and Rice) and 2 T wet food (California Natural Salmon and sweet potato)and bottled water everyday. I really shouldn't give dry food at all? He's 16 pounds and needs to lose a few. Though he is a big cat by nature.

As for the atrial septal defect, aside from re-checking it in 6 months to see if there are any changes, is there anything you recommend doing? He has this sort of cough once every few weeks and then vomits clear fluid. My vet thinks that this is from allergies.

Thanks so much for your help.
