Default more on Hyperthyroid cat

My cat was diagnosed in May, but could not tolerate the Tapazole. I
decided to have him treated with the radioactive iodine, and it was the
best thing I could have done. Unfortunately, I believe my cat had had
the hyperthyrodism for years, and I had not detected the symptoms. He
passed away last Sunday, we believe it was from a stroke, due to
hypertension for years.

But if anyone is considering the radioactive treatment it is wonderful.

Willie is on the meds.
I'm having a really hard time posting to this newsgroup with my news rover
