Hello

I was hoping for some input on how to manage this case. We have Fluffy a 5year old Sphinx who was in for a dentistry and we did a pre-anesthetic echo. He previously had elevated pro-BNP.

Today we found significant changes on US. It is my thought to forgo the dental cleaning. Teeth have M1-M2tartar but client really wants the dentistry. I was wondering what course of action we should take.

Would you be hesitant to place this cat under GA? I feel this are moderate to severe changes that require medication (No clinical signs)
