I just got an email from Herbie's adopters. Apparently he suffered a heart attack and is at Owego Veterinary Hospital. Please send good thoughts their way. Herbie is a young guy so this was entirely unexpected. He's got a wonderful loving family and I'm sure this is really hard on them.
I am not at all familiar with heart disease in cats. I am learning more via the internet, starting with this page on About.com.

A heart attack? I didn't know cats had those. I'm still learning too. He's in our prayers.
Is Herbie a relative of Rocket's?

Yes, April, Herbie is Rocket's brother. I'll see what I can find out about the cause, and will definitely pass it on to you and Sam and Delilah's homes as well. I do know cats that have had heart disease whose sibs have been AOK, but I'll still see what I can find out for you.
Ok, just let me know. More dieting. . . :-)
