Sophie’s diagnosis

So this cat. Sigh.  She will be 14 years old this summer so she’s getting up there in years for a cat.  A few months ago, she couldn’t stop puking.  After a visit to the vet, she was diagnosed with hypothyroidism.  I always swore we wouldn’t be a family that pays for expensive pet treatments.  I know some people do and that’s totally fine, but as much as I love Sophie. . when the time comes, it’s time.  Looks like she got lucky this time.

Thankfully, she doesn’t eat any table food (except maybe a lone piece of popcorn) so we were able to simply transition her to a slightly more expensive food made for hyperthyroidism.  It’s brought all her levels back to normal with no meds.

So it looks like she’ll be around for a little while longer.  I think Owen and Ellie will be glad of that!
