Some American Bobtail health problems

Cardiomyopathy

American Bobtails are susceptible to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a common heart disease in felines. HCM involves the thickening of the heart muscle, which can impair heart function and lead to heart failure.

American Bobtails are generally healthy cats, but like any breed, you might find they face certain health issues throughout their life. Cat insurance can help cover the cost of any unexpected illness that might arise – so they’ll always be able to get the care they need.

*Please note that these are general health concerns for American Bobtails, and individual cats may or may not experience these issues. Regular veterinary care, a balanced diet, proper exercise, and attention to breed-specific needs can help mitigate some of these health problems.

We define pre-existing conditions as:

If your American Bobtail has had a health problem within this time, we still have options for you.

Our dedicated Pre-existing policy covers pre-existing conditions up to £1,500 per year, once your American Bobtail has been free of treatment, medication or advice for at least three months.
