*This pet had a surgery to remove a bladder stone on 4/24/24. Although the stone was removed surgically, recurrence is possible. Diet and/or medication is important in minimizing the excess minerals in the urinary tract which can lead to stone formation. This pet is currently being managed with a prescription diet to help her process the minerals.
We are sending you home with a supply of the prescription diet, plus our veterinarian will 1) write a 90-day prescription for the diet and medication OR 2) approve a 90-day prescription through an online pharmacy of your choice (ex: Chewy) IF prescription request is submitted within 7 days of adoption. Please consult with your primary veterinarian as soon as possible to form a long-term plan of your pet's care and to refill the prescription diet and medication, if needed.
Approved prescription diet(s) for this animal: Hill's c/d Multicare Diet Royal Canin SO Diet Purina ProPlan UR Diet
*Hyperthyroidism (too much thyroid hormone) is a common problem in older cats. Symptoms of hyperthyroidism can include increased activity & vocalizing, weight loss despite a good appetite, increased thirst and increased urination.
The condition is diagnosed by combination of physical examination and laboratory tests, especially a T4 test.
Treatment for this condition typically involves the daily administration of an oral thyroid medication (methimazole); however, other treatments are available and may be discussed with your veterinarian. Each cat may respond a little differently and therefore adjustments in dose or frequency are often necessary. It is essential that a veterinarian monitor the cat's response to treatment (both with physical exam and blood tests) to determine if the dose needs to be adjusted. Once the cat is regulated on a "maintenance dose", blood test rechecks should be done at regular 6 to 12 month intervals.
It is important to remember that while most cats respond well to treatment, the condition is not being "cured". Daily oral treatment and regular veterinary rechecks will need to be continued for the life of the cat.
We recommend that you talk to your regular veterinarian before making a decision to adopt a cat with this condition.

HSSC places animals on a first come, first serve basis. After an animal that is available for adoption has been met with, the animal’s name can be put on an application. Animals that are applied for must be adopted the same day or within 24 hours of the animal being placed on the adoption application. Exceptions will be made if any animal needs a medical procedure, but then will need to be adopted within 24 hours of being cleared from that procedure. HSSC reserves the right to accommodate alternate timelines for special needs/behavioral issue animals.
It is the potential adopter's responsibility to communicate with their landlord to contact HSSC for approval or to provide documentation stating permission within 24 hours of application submission.
It is also the potential adopter's responsibility to produce a current rabies certificate for their current dog(s) to conduct a dog to dog meet and greet within 24 hours of application submission.
Please call shelter for adoption pricing.
