Selection Criteria

We only accept medically stable cats.

The cats we treat typically range in age from 6 to 21 years.

If your cat is currently receiving antithyroid medication, food or supplements, please discontinue use 2 weeks prior to treatment. For a successful treatment outcome, all antithyroid medication, food and supplements must be completely eliminated from your cat’s body.

In addition to a physical examination, referring veterinarians may be asked to complete the following procedures:

  • Complete Blood Count (required)

  • Comprehensive Chemistry Panel with T4 (required)

  • Urinalysis (required)

  • Full-body radiographs (highly recommended/possibly required)

  • Up to date Rabies and FVRCP vaccinations or a vaccine exemption letter

Cats with a heart murmur, or any cardiac abnormalities, may require evaluation by a cardiologist before they can be treated at Cat Thyroid Center.

Each cat’s medical history is reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call or email us.
