    Cat With Hyperthyroidism

    Update on Miss Bucky. Yesterday she had her 3 month post I-131 check up and finally has put on another pound of weight, still waiting to see the results of the blood work, but her 1 month post I-131 results were pretty good with T-4 down to 2.7, at diagnosis the T-4 was 19.7, so I am very...

    Cat With Hyperthyroidism

    I'm so glad to see there is a place closer to you than Oklahoma! I had to drive 4 hours to California from Nevada, but I live in a rural area. I have decided to go ahead and let Miss Bucky stay the full two weeks in the master bath, and have been visiting with her several times a day. She is...

    Cat With Hyperthyroidism

    Antonio65, thanks,and no scintigraphy was done. They didn't tell me the exact reading but the paperwork said "when released to your care your pet will have a surface exposure of no more than 10 mR/hr...and I was told that she was at the higher end of what is allowed. I was asked to put her...

    Cat With Hyperthyroidism

    Bucky came home last night, and has been closed up in my master bathroom since then, she's not thrilled about it but neither am I. She meowed quite a bit on the way home but has settled down now. Apparently she was on the highest edge of allowable radiation level for release so only 15...

    Cat With Hyperthyroidism

    Thanks Antonio, I will ask about that. I believe that will be done down in California as none of the vets in my area do those types of things.

    Has Nature's Miracle Clumping Litter Been Discontinued?

    I know this is an old post, but just to update...I called Nature's Miracle, they denied changing anything and asked me to send them a sample (clean) promised to send a shipping label but never did. My kittes didn't like something about the Tidy Cat, so I tried Dr. Elsey's and they like it. It...

    Cat With Hyperthyroidism

    Thanks....my vet was the one who recommended the pill crushing...it is much better than having the pill spit out for now. She said she wants to get her levels down first before we order the transdermal and she will check her blood work in one month, and periodically thereafter. Hopefully this...

    Cat With Hyperthyroidism

    mentat and Antonio65 Sorry thought I finished that post..yes it is the y/d food, and she doesn't like it one bit. I did a little reading on line about the food, and found mixed opinions so I thought I would ask if others are using it or just going with the medication. Today was the first...

    Kitty Poo Club

    I use that one also, and by putting a litter liner under it it I have a way to put the whole thing in the trash when it's time to change it out, and I do not have to scrub out the cat pans.

    Has Nature's Miracle Clumping Litter Been Discontinued?

    Kitty who was in the room when my husband passed away last year will not come back in the house.

    Thanks to everyone who replied!  In early December I booked a session with an animal communicator and two weeks later was able to get Tiny into the house.  At first she walked around the kitchen yowling, but within five minutes she was in the living room rubbing all over me and purring as if the...

    Kitty who was in the room when my husband passed away last year will not come back in the house.

    Thanks, there are a lot of his things still in the room  I went through his clothes, and gave a good bit to the salvation army, but I kept a lot of his things. She hasn't been back in the house though, so I am not sure that is it.    I have not been able to get near her, but I do think taking...
