Lovable Eddy

July’s pet of the Month is Eddy, he is a 13-year-old domestic shorthair coming to Dogwood since 2008. Most recently Eddy came in this June, weak and vomiting. We examined and tested his blood, which showed elevated liver values and hyperthyroidism. We started Eddy on the prescription drug Tapazole, a Chinese herb, Long Dan Xie Gan Tang, and a liver supplement. So far so good, Eddy is taking his medicine and on the mend.  How to tell if your cat is hyperthyroid.
