Did anyone ever have expirence w/ a cat having hyperthyroidism? She eats & eats and doesn't get full. I had blood work done in Jan. & plan on calling my vet on Tuesday to get it done again. I feel bad for her. She's not in pain but eats alot. Any advice would be helpful. She's 10 & a half & sleeps alot!
Thanks,
seahawk

It's been a hwile since I've had a cat. At 10 they are going to sleep a lot. That seems normal.
Why do you think she has hyperthyroidism? If anything I would think it would be Hypothyroidism.
Has she been checked for worms?
It maybe she just needs her food changed. Less filler stuff more protein. A mouse a day will keep the vet away!

for tape worms, my cat did the same thing and he had a tapeworm from a flea. even though he was an inside cat he got a flea on him then a tapeworm. if i remember it on took one pill to get rid of it. 3|1|Yes I'm calling the vet tomorrow, I also thought about|seahawk|Seahawks57@aol.com|17:17:24|09/07/2009|
