While it’s fixed, it’s not working. I suspect we’re still having some technical issues.

Just want to mention that whenever I try to use the link on “send it to me” the link is broken.
Maybe it can be fixed?

KateH, Felimazole is not a thyroid supplement. It’s a drug that SUPPRESSES thyroid function in cats with OVERactive thyroid. You and your dog are taking Synthroid, which is a thyroid supplement. Completely unrelated. :)

I love all your cat tales, David, and I have read all of them (including the Shakespearian one from last time).

Thanks for bringing all them onto your column.

I got a new mouse today, but my cats don’t react to it. It is only for my computer and they are probably thinking they will wait until the “real mouse” scampers on the scene.
However, I am happier with the mouse I have now. And I am not getting a mouse for them unless it is a TOY mouse!

Any idea what the difference between Felimazole and other thyroid drugs? One of my dogs, and I both take generic synthroid and there are no such “scare-the-pants-off-you” warnings for that, or any other thyroid drug I’ve ever used or seen.
