Posted on July 20, 2014 by onespoiledcat

Standard

Bloodwork from vet check came back……this old guy in good shape

EXCEPT

Gonna have to take thyroid meds (hyperthyroidism) in addition to Cosequin for my achey-breaky arthritis. YUCK

But I’m gonna be good and take my pills……I promise!

Hi Sam,

Welcome to the club. I have had Rheumatoid Arthritis for 44 years and I have been taking all kinds of meds to be able to function. Yes, it is much more fun not to take meds, but some of us are old hands at it. You are quite a handsome fellow, bet you are also fun to be with – that will never change no matter what your body does.

Wishing you a continued wonderful life,

I’m sure I’ll be just fine once I get used to taking pills – I’ve just been lucky in my 14 years and haven’t had to ever take a pill before! My Mom is very sneaky though so I’m sure she can disguise it and I won’t even know I’m taking it! Moms are like that…..hahaha

No reason to be sad. Does your mom have a “Cat Piller”? It’s rubber tipped plunger that your mom would use to get the pill way into our mouth. My mom did it for many many years for my Angel Brofur Mickey. When he had to take multiple pills she put them all in a gelatin capsule and he only had to suffer the piller once. Be brave and know it will help you feel better.

Sammy, Buddy! One of the Kitties Who Came Before took thyroid pills for years and years and did great on them. We think you will get used to it and probably feel much better!

I read your post on how to behave at the vets, and I’m glad it works for you. But I have to tell you my method:

Behave like a barely contained rabid wolverine.
Get anesthesia.
Everything is done while you are unconscious.
Wake up.
Go home.

Punish the Human for *weeks* and *weeks*.

Works for me.

  Spitty I think your method is absolutely fabulous if it works for you.

Thanks for telling me about the kitty who came before taking thyroid stuff – Mom thinks she can sprinkle it on my food and I won’t even notice….HA!

  Thanks Dezi……Mom’s having a time getting me to eat the thyroid medicine – even all ground up and smushed up in yogurt or butter (my favorite treats) – I can tell something’s “up” and won’t eat it. Mom’s going to have to look into having it compounded into a cream that she can rub inside my ear….then I’ll just absorb the medication instead of having to eat it. That might work!
  
  Hugs, Sammy

      Mom thought about that pill pusher thing but this morning she tried the yogurt trick and it worked so we’ll see how long that DOES work before we consider alternatives. I told her this morning (haha) that I’d cooperate from now on if she did NOT get a pill pusher!!!!!
