They can definitely learn their names--if you want to speed the process you can do a little behavioral training. Work with one at a time: get a treat that it likes, move a few feet away, and call its name. When it comes (even if it's just because it smells the treat), give it the treat. It will come to think of hearing its name with getting a treat, but eventually you won't need the treat anymore. In my experience they're very smart cats!

the biggest component would to be finding out what's inflicting the murmur. it must be congenital if he's no longer displaying the different indications of heart ailment. yet in ordinary terms a vet would have the ability to assist you to recognize this. I had a MC while i became a youthful teenager that became clinically determined with a grade 5 (scaled a million-6) heart murmur while he became 4 months previous. After fairly some tests the vet stumbled on no evidence of any form of heart ailment to reason the murmur. I went decrease back ever 4 months to have him checked and mutually because it by no ability have been given smaller it by no ability have been given greater advantageous the two. different than for being a marginally "lazy" kitten he acted like numerous different kitten. he will turn sixteen years previous in June. he's in simple terms now commencing as much as decelerate with age. My suggestion is to artwork very heavily along with your vet and to have common tests executed on the murmur. some do bypass away. I artwork with a guard cat who had a grade 4 murmur while she became extra in at 8 weeks previous and now at 3 years previous that's severely smaller.

yes. They are smart cats too. But they can be bullyish so if you have other cats, be prepared. They are wonderful cats as well.
