:Hello,

:I just found this forum and am in need of some advice. I did read the post on 11/27/02 regarding a cat with an enlarged heart and the response by PHDrTobin in regards to diet.

:My cat is also taking Enacard and I will be trying the fresh meat diet and beef hearts. My question is, she is also taking Lasix to relieve congestion. What natural remedy can I give her to relieve this? At any given point she simply starts wheezing and it seems as if she coughs something up but then she swallows it.

:She remains quite active and perky otherwise.

:Thank you for your attention to my message.

For any heart condition, in addition to the diet change, give 30mg CoQ10 twice a day. I would also give Jiaogulan concentrate twice a day.
