My cat’s name is Tootie
He was 3 years old, in perfectly good health
After his death I’ve done about 5 hours of research for the cause of his death but couldn’t find any answers:(
He had a heavy cold a week prior to his death but the vet told me that there was nothing to worry about, I hope this info helps and RIP Tootie.

Thank you for giving your time to read my question but the problem is that my family members are not keen on the idea of a specialist performing a necropsy on Tootie as we already gave him a proper grave…..
Can his death be due to heartworms?
Because the symptoms/signs of a heartworm being present in a cat’s body are compatible with the behavior of my cat and I forgot to add that we recently sent him to the vet due to tens of flea and mosquito bites (the main transmitters of heartworms between cats).

I’m so sorry, Zaid.  Unfortunately, without a necropsy, there’s no real way to know what caused his death.

I doubt heartworms would have been THAT bad THAT quickly.
