Cats can become diabetic, arthritic, and yes, even get cancer. So is it possible for a cat to have an over-active thyroid? Yes, it is.

If you feel that your pet is having a health problem, take it to the vet and have it checked out. Yeah, it may cost a few bucks, but which is worse? Knowing for sure and then treating it, or not knowing, always wondering, worrying and constantly "having it on the back of your mind", as they say?

If you have a close attachment to your pet, wouldn't you want to help a friend in need?
