Has your cat suddenly lost weight? If you haven't changed your cat's diet, it could be hyperthyroidism. It is very common over the age of 7, and often times other symptoms may be harder to spot. Please ask your vet to check your cat's thyroid hormones if they're less fluffy than usual.

We had the pleasure of treating this sweet boy this week and he has made such improvement since he received his I-131 treatment for hyperthyroidism. By day 2, he seemed much more comfortable, and by the fifth day he was a different cat. They say the maximum effect is up to 6 months after therapy, but the relief of symptoms happens so quickly. Their little bodies are just exhausted, so it is amazing to watch the transformation.

Thanks for being an atomic cat, GC!

We see so many skinny, sick cats with organ damage from advancing hyperthyroidism. Please ask your vet to check a T4 level if your cat is over 7. You can catch this disease before the heart and kidneys suffer and before your cat loses a significant amount of weight. If your cat is suddenly much smaller or you can easily feel their spine and ribs, get them checked! Hyperthyroidism is very common and shortens the life span of your cat significantly. Bring them to me for treatment before they're so sick and they'll do so much better!

We are so happy to be able to help these poor cats return to a normal life. Please ask your vet to check T4 levels if your cat is over 7 years old. Symptoms can become apparent very suddenly with weight loss, irritability, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and matted or greasy-appearing fur. Please call us if we can help!

Did you know that hyperthyroidism in cats causes damage to organs before the symptoms become obvious to cat owners? 11% of senior cats over the age of 7 will develop hyperthyroidism, so ask your vet to check thyroid hormones and catch this very common condition before it causes symptoms and damage to the heart and kidneys.

Ask your vet to check your cat's hormone levels if he or she is 7 or older. Hyperthyroidism is extremely common and can damage organs and shorten the lifespan of your cat if treatment is not started quickly.
