Nottis is not yet totally out of the woods but she is feeling much better. It's seems that the vet's gamble with the medication was a correct decision. Nottis is treated for hyperthyroidism even though the blood tests weren't conclusive about it. She's still quite weak and tired, but she's eating which is vital for cats. A change was noticeable already after the first dosage. She'll have to take the medicine twice a day for the rest of her life.
Aww, this is a lovely photo and very pleased for the update that she's slowly getting better. My Ed's old cat had hyperthyroidism, seems so common with cats. Hope she's easy to pill?
@katriak Phew!! Esp if able to hide in a treat? We can't pill Lucy, even the vet couldn't pill Lucy, we asked once because we have so much trouble, grins.
One of my cat’s needed a thyroid pill everyday in her later years. I was just able to accomplish it by wrapping her in a towel and using one of those balling guns ( a very small one) although sometimes it took more than one attempt. Thankfully one of my sons ( I call him the cat whisperer) had a great way with cats and was able to do it more easily when he was around. Glad to hear they have a liquid form now.
