My vet once said hyperthyroidism is common in cats.

One cat did well with the meds and stayed with us for many years once we found out what was going on.

With another cat we went for the radiation treatment. He was in for a few days but they had a kitty cam so you could check in on him.

When he came home his best buddy wouldn't leave his side and wouldn't let the other cats bother him.

So glad they've found out it was something manageable.
