A Sad Story About Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
and Hope for the Future
Francesca and Paola's Ragdoll Cats
My name is Francesca Doria. I live in Trieste , Italy. It is located in a key position near Austria, Slovenia and Croatia. It has been the most important Austrian harbour for 600 years.
I bred Ragdolls along with my sister Paola until last year (2005) under the Slipperpaws prefix.
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy is the most common heart disease in cats.
This site is dedicated to all the victims of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; cats, dogs and humans.
A special thought goes to our cats and to their owners.
A call to all cat and dog breeders and in particular Ragdoll lovers: please, try to help the research in order to fight HCM. Read this site, and if you can, donate something. Remember: the future of the breed is in your hands. |
