(post by Cathy): We found out yesterday that Toby (grey tiger cat) is hyperthyroid. Just like Nick (other grey tiger cat). We're glad it's not diabetes or kidney disease, but what's going on? Is it something in our water? Have to get methimazole for him today. Started him on Nick's meds yesterday. Of our pet population, this leaves only Tess unmedicated. Our pet medications bill alone is slowly creeping upward, not to mention normal pet supplies. Note to self (and others): if you plan to have multiple pets, try to stagger their ages - all geriatric pets at once is a tough one.
