Feline Hyperthyroid (also Hypothyroid welcome) http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/feline-hyperT/?yguid=167334211 Some folks have good luck with Pill Pockets. Most vets carry them. Pets Mart may as well. Mine caught on the 2nd dose and now avoid them like the plague. Pequita would get hysterical and foam at the mouth whenever I tried to pill her. But she loves Gerber 2 Chicken and Gravy baby food. I crush her meds, dissolve them in 1-2 cc of water and add them to a couple of tsp of Gerbers. She laps it right up. Shaft really needs the Tapazole to get his thyroid regulated. If Pill Pockets don't work try the baby food. Any meat variety works just make sure it doesn't have onions or garlic in it. Also the Gerber 2 Chicken and gravy has 100 calories per jar so it would help with the wt issue. Sharyl

Everyone here has been so sick I just didn't realize it until a few weeks ago (a few days before I was leaving for a week's vacation). I got him into the vet suspecting hyper-t as soon as I got back. That's what it was. The vet detected a heart murmer as well. He is an estimated 18 years old. He had a fever and the vet put him on some amoxy for that, as well as the tapazole, of course. Problem. He now hides and I have to chase him around to get any med.s down him. I've given up on everything except the tapazole and he still hides. Should I stress him out with the chase down? Crate him for a while? He doesn't seem to be gaining ANY weight, and I have an appt. with vet again on Monday. We were supposed to wait a month, but he's getting worse, not better. Does anyone have the link to join the hyper-t group or any other advice? I am quickly losing my mind. la la la la. t _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org _______________________________________________ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org
