He was 18, had a crippled paw, and severe hyperthyroidism. He died a few weeks after we left. Such a sweet little guy.
Rusty is facing some big changes. She has hyperthyroidism for which there are several treatments. We are starting, on Monday, 2 doses/day of a chicken flavoured liquid medication. There will be more bloodwork (I will keep bloodwork to a strict minimum) in three weeks and then we will take it from there. To date she is affectionate and happy. I have my fingers crossed that she likes the chicken flavoured stuff.
Everything You Need to Know About Every Thyroid Disorder: Signs, Symptoms, Causes, Treatments
The hormones in the body have a role to support the communication between every function, so any imbalance can be the cause of a short of health issues. Thyroid disorders affect over 4% of the American citizens.
The thyroid gland affects almost all of the metabolic processes in the body, and these thyroid disorders can range from a small, harmless goiter that does not require any treatment, to life-threatening cancer. The most common thyroid problems involve abnormal production of thyroid hormones, hyperthyroidism, and hypothyroidism.
Hypothyroidism is a condition of an underactive thyroid, which is characterized by weight loss, fatigue, slow metabolism, constipation, and brain fog. It is most often a result of:
Hashimoto’s thyroiditis: It is a type of hypothyroidism that occurs when the immune system does not recognize the thyroid gland cells and the enzymes and inhibits the production of thyroid hormone
Exposure to excessive amounts of iodide
The use of certain drugs
Removal of the thyroid gland
On the other hand, hyperthyroidism is developed when the thyroid gland is hyperactive thyroid, elevating the levels of the thyroid hormone. Its most common causes include:
Toxic adenomas: Nodules develop in the thyroid gland and release thyroid hormones, upsetting the body’s chemical balance
Graves’ disease: The excessive production of thyroid hormone.
Subacute thyroiditis: Inflammation of the thyroid that urges the gland to “leak” excess hormones, leading to temporary hyperthyroidism that in most cases lasts for a few weeks
Pituitary gland malfunctions or cancerous growths in the thyroid gland
It leads to symptoms such as anxiety, muscle weakness, trouble sleeping, nervousness, and accelerated metabolism.
Thyroid disorders are usually diagnosed via a blood test and are usually treated with some prescription drugs like levothyroxine, synthetic hormones, and many other anti-thyroid medications.
However, the first step towards better health and relief in the case of thyroid disorders is to do some lifestyle and dietary changes.
The following foods are incredibly beneficial in case you suffer from hypothyroidism:

Hi there, my name’s Kitty and I’m a13-year-old female. I was first brought to the Mayhew after a member of my family became allergic to me.
When I first arrived at the Mayhew I was quite underweight and my eyes had lost a bit of their sparkle, but nowadays, after a bit of special care and attention, I’m feeling much better and looking beautiful again. I’m no spring kitten but I’m certainly not past it yet!
I’m a lovely cat and a real pleasure to be around. I crave human attention and I enjoy nothing more than spending my time with someone, sharing the love and having a nice relaxing nap!
But I’m not too old to have fun and I do like a nose around in the garden and the odd game here and there – it keeps me feeling youthful! My favourite toy is a simple feather and I can chase it around my cabin just as well as my younger feline friends!
I’m a very well-behaved and undemanding puss, my only real requirement is for plenty of love and affection. I’m looking for a kindred spirit in my owner: someone who lives a calm and laid-back life but remains young at heart, just like myself!
I really don’t enjoy feline company and would need to go to a home without existing cats. Although I feel well in myself I am hyperthyroid therefore my new only will need to continue with the medication I’m currently receiving.

Mom sent some Friskies Party Mix in her holiday care package. The idea that cats need their own party mix is a little disturbing, as is the psycho kitty pictured on the package. But Aremid, with his hyperthyroidism not under control, could use all the calories he can get, and he loves the Party Mix. And the Target bag that Mom's goodies came in.
A thyroid gland that makes excessive amounts of thyroid hormone, is known as hyperthyroidism. The hormones responsible for regulating metabolism and calcium balance are thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). The condition is caused by abnormal production of these hormones. Attributing diseases that exacerbate hyperthyroidism are Grave’s Disease, and Thyroiditis. Symptoms and severity are symbiotic, as the gland increases in size, symptoms worsen.

Dennis Says: “Though I didn’t have a lot of weight to lose, my wife and I both sure did want to get rid of my belly. As you can see T----m really did the trick. Thanks F------e!”
This is Charlie.
Some Charlie facts:
- He is one of our three cats.
- He is 14 years old.
- He's had hyperthyroid for the last 7 years.
- He gets half a pill twice a day.
- He's lost a lot of weight recently.
- He's a major pain in the ass when he wants to eat.
- He doesn't pay me much attention since Abby came home from the hospital almost two years ago.
Bonkers, looking positively fat (he's very skinny now due to hyperthyroidism) was the second cat we got after we move to the States in 1999.
Poor Victor saw the vet today for an EKG. His heart murmur rates 2 out of 6 and the EKG is normal - yeah! They also took blood to test for hyperthyroidism, though it's pretty unlikely in a 3.5 year old cat. Most likely, he'll simply let his heart murmur at the vet lady every year for a good, long time :-)
Marley, shown here, is my cat. He's about 13 years old, and has been my cat for 12 of them. This picture was taken 2 days before he was to go in to get his teeth cleaned. This procedure required him to put put under general anesthesia, which was a risk in this case due in part to his age, but also in part to the fact that he has hyperthyroidism (which we've had under control for about a year now). So, going into the procedure, we were worried that he might not survive.
The vet dentist, upon examining him, was much more optimistic - the tartar buildup wasn't terrible, and there seemed to be a minimal chance of tooth extractions. He also felt that Marley was healthy enough that the risks were minimal. We were quite relieved to hear the news.
Marley did survive (which, given the initial assessment, seemed a no-brainer to us), and is happy to be back at home. He managed to throw the vet dentist a real curve ball though - it seems as though he had developed a cavity -- something virtually unheard of in cats. So along with a cleaning, Marley also got a filling.
The thyroid gland is a small organ
Situated in the anterior part of the neck.
It can affect your whole body
if your thyroid doesn't function properly.
If too much thyroid hormone is released to
your body, a disorder called hyperthyroidism may develop.
If too little thyroid hormone is
produced by your body, that's called hypothyroidism.
Both conditions are extreme and the
healthcare provider has to handle them.
Skittles moved in when her loving family had to move overseas. She had congestive heart failure likely caused by severe hyperthyroidism. Kidney failure ultimately took her life.
Jake foreground, Bailey back.
They are going to the Vet tomorrow at 1130, for their annual vaccinations, blood tests and a check ups.
I am WORRIED about JAKE. ( this is the primary reason I have made this appointment) He is loosing hair on the outside of both ears and is ALWAYS hungry and wanting to eat. ( more than normal)
I hope he is not hyperthyroid! I will insist on blood work for both.
I'll keep you all posted.

Toby is going on 17 and still one super strong and stubborn boy. He always swipes me as soon as I displease him. Gotta respect his honesty! lol :-)
It was dark, so I held my finger over the flash which produced this red haze. I thought it was appropriately sad looking.
While at the Feline Hyperthyroid Treatment Center, your pets eliminations must be collected and stored for three months before being disposed of.
Our Japanese Maple goes all hyperthyroid with the color thing every November. It's of a variety called "Sherwood's Flame," which is why my dear, dear, dear wife bought it several years ago.
It's planted in the decaying stump of a virgin-forest sequoia sempervirens, of which there are multitudes here in the Santa Cruz Mountains.
My little man is in the kitty hospital being treated for hyperthyroidism, but I get to watch him via a webcam. I love living in the future.
I'm taking Zen for his yearly check up in the morning. They will do blood work. I suspect he will come back hyperthyroid. He's been feeling a little better the past week, week and a half and I'm not sure why.

Ubi went in for radioactive iodine treatment for hyperthyroid today. He'll be in quarantine at the animal hospital until the radioactivity in his system drops to acceptable levels (about five days).
Honey was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism this week. It doesn't seem to be a grave problem right now, but she began medication to suppress her thyroid hormone production and she'll be going to the vet frequently for monitoring.

Somebody found 16 year old Sabrina wandering in the park with a broken leg and took her to the city shelter. They set her leg and kept her safe but she was slated to be put down tomorrow. So we asked them to pull her and bring her to Bushwick! She'll recuperate and settle into the household in due time. She's already purring and making herself at home! She's got hyperthyroidism, dental disease and her eyes seem a little cloudy, too. Should keep us busy for a while! @nycacc @nycurgentcats #helpSabrina #seniorcat #oldladycat bit.ly/2UDzbXF
this is zoomer. last summer, zoomer had a ruptured anal gland. this summer, she had a hematoma on her ear. zoomer and her sister callie are 15 years old. callie has hyperthyroidism and her kidneys are failing. 15 must be the year when geriatric cats fall apart.
the ear puffed up like a turnover and filled with blood. to treat her, the vet lanced the ear and removed the blood clot. because the bottom layer of the ear had separated from the top, it needed to be sutured together so it will adhere back...otherwise, it would just fill up with blood again. to make sure the sutures hold for the three weeks necessary, the vet sewed shirt buttons to her ear...three pairs with one on each side of the ear. apparently, this happens pretty often because not only did he have 6 shirt buttons on hand, he was able to match them to her fur.
i had never heard of this treatment, so i thought i would share.
Rori almost died last week, that's why I haven't been commenting and posting much. She's almost 17.
It seems that either her hyperthyroid condition or her hyperthyroid medicine caused her to have high blood pressure which resulted in a host of problems. She's better now, but I'm not sure how much longer she'll last.
So far, the wildflowers and willows seem to be surviving the heat. I'm more worried about all the feral cats we take care of. Frank, in particular, is really struggling. I spent the morning putting dishes of water all along the path that he usually takes when he is coming over to eat. Hopefully that will help keep him hydrated. We're also going to try wetting the grass behind the house while he is here eating. Our hope is that the water on his paws from the grass will help cool him when he makes his way back to his little hiding spot. Not sure what else we can do. I'm so grateful we bought our new air conditioner last week - good timing...especially since Guido struggles so much with the heat with his hyperthyroidism. Plus, we were able to loan out our old air conditioner to a friend - yay! Can't wait for it to get cooler again so we can get back to biking and skating :) At least having the windows closed with the AC makes it easier to crank up the music at night. Nothing better than sitting in front of the AC drinking beer & listening to records with someone you love <3
We buried Theo, Rex guinea pig. He suffered compilations after surgery. He woke up and starting eating but next morning vet called to say he had seizures. He was subdued and died hours later. Hyperthyroidism treatment for guinea pigs rarely happen. I still haven’t heard if any pig survived the illness and surgery, searches online in vain. May God bless Theo and take care of him. Just recalling how Theo squeaked and asked for treats on Monday morning, how he was gone next day...
