Referrals Report

Your cat will need to have several diagnostic tests performed before we schedule your appointment. This can usually be done during a single visit to your veterinarian. Your veterinarian will need a referral form to send along with your cat's medical history and lab results.

Faq Report

Hyperthyroidism is a benign condition caused by overproduction of thyroid hormone by the thyroid gland. It is common in cats over 8 years of age but can affect younger cats as well. Malignant cancer of the thyroid gland can also occur but is rare in cats. Clinical signs include weight loss, increased appetite, vomiting, diarrhea, drinking and urinating more, and nervousness or hyperactivity.
