Sister with her money.
She's not impressed with hundreds.
Twenties are her favorite.

GF buries her money. Lol. Know what I mean?
That's quite a bit of cash.
That's good to know. I've been considering an e92.
GF thinks I'm cheap. She's probably right. She knows how to burn.
Oh man, sorry to hear that. Condolences, it's rough. We lost this one just over a month ago to diabetes. Bill, he was my main man:

Gosh, you guys have some solid cats.
My cat has hyperthyroidism and I'm struggling to keep her weight up.
I lost Lucy this summer, she was 16. Lucy had hyperthyroidism and had a thyroidectomy about 4 years ago. She got really skinny but after surgery put weight back on.

I'm sorry about Lucy...
It's so hard to lose a family/friend...
Sister is 16 and diagnosed last year.
Now she's on low dosage pills twice a day and doing a little better.
But still she wouldn't eat and gain as much I would like her to.
It's been on going struggle I much rather have than not having her around.

I took one of my females to the vet last week and the vet said he thought she might be hyperthyroid. She is def. not as round as she used to be and does eat quite well. He wasn't particularly worried about it but I may look into it more. She came to me as a stray so I don't know how old she is but if I had to guess i would say between 11 and 14.
That is such a great name!
I still miss her, especially with the weather getting cold and she'd curl up in my lap. Sometimes I still expect to see her in the house. She was the boss of the pups even though they both outweighed her by 60 lbs.
I opted to have the surgery for Lucy since she was in good health at the time and just could not imagine having to give her pills twice a day. She was very difficult to pill. Luckily, the surgical option worked well for her.
Vet suggested Radioactive Iodine which costs around $2,000.
It is permanent treatment and no side effects other than "may" not be working.
The only problem is we have to send her to a facility for 10-14 days since she'll be radioactive.
They have to monitor her and her waste.
Meanwhile, we can't even go visit her so I don't know how we'll handle that.
That option is still up in the air.
Ours is from the pound; unknown age for certain, she has not been an easy pet. It took a year for her to stop swatting anyone who approached her and she still cowers and freaks despite 2 years now of never being hit or threatened.
Given her personality, purrsnickety is a name of genius due to my daughter (who was 11 at the time)
But yeah, she's not gaining weight, so we have her on methimazole to stabilize the thyroid.
I've been through pet maintenance heroics and while I love the little things, it's just not worth it when it's time for them to go.
I'm making the same choice for me every day, quality over quantity.
Sister lived on the street first year then decided to move in with me.
We've been together since 2000.
She's on Felimazole 2.5mg and goes to checkups twice a year.
I got her insurance when she turned 10, so that helps a bit.
As long as she has some quality in her life, I'll do anything to provide.
Kids come up with the best names, ever! ;)
This is Rosa Lee. She loves the brushing so much that after she finishes giving the brush love bites she grabs it and brushes herself :yourock:
