Hyperthyroid cat and felimazole?
« Reply #1 on: February 09, 2010, 20:12:06 PM »
Hi my cat is 15 years old he was throw out by the people who own him so we have him now.
I took the cat down to the vet and spend over 200 on him he had all the tests including the cat aids test but he came up with having Hyperthyroid gland problem. my vet put him on 2.5 felimazole but did not work has good now he on 5mg 2 times a day but he is biting is fur on the back on is leg on one spot no where elses could this be a side affect of the table we have 5 other cats not had him that long so it might be stress maybe. any one had the same problem with Hyperthyroid cat and felimazole.
Thanks
David
