'Caring for a cat with hyperthyroidism' by feline specialist Dr Sarah Caney is now available.
By: Cat Professional Thyroid conditions are fairly well documented in humans, with Oprah Winfrey recently revealing her hyperthyroidism diagnosis. There are three main treatment options for cats with hyperthyroidism - medication, surgery or radioiodine (a form of radiotherapy) “Most cats are surprisingly easy to medicate while others will eat treatments which can be mixed with their food. Some countries have also approved transdermal treatments which are creams which are applied somewhere that’s hairless such as the inside of the cat’s ear. In all cases owners should work with their vets to find the treatment which best suits the needs of themselves and their cat” Dr Sarah Caney is author of the newly published book ‘Caring for a cat with hyperthyroidism’ Owners of cats recently diagnosed with hyperthyroidism will find the case studies in the book extremely reassuring for the long-term outlook. Dr Caney details one of the first patients that she treated and in the second case study owner Kathy Wilkinson writes about her experiences as the owner of seven cats who have been diagnosed with the condition over the last five years. Kathy was also kind enough to review the book and had this to say; “all I can say is how lucky the owner of a newly diagnosed hyperthyroid cat would be to have access to [the book]........this book is a must for every vet’s surgery and I will be nagging my practice to get a copy. In fact, I think I will provide them with one as I think it is an absolute necessity!” ‘Caring for a cat with hyperthyroidism’ * Mainly 9+ years # # # Cat Professional is an organisation dedicated to providing specialist feline veterinary care and advice to both cat owners and veterinary professionals alike.
