I am so proud of Tucker and delighted that he is Cat of the Day! What a nice surprise this morning!

UPDATE:
Since I wrote Tucker's story for COTD we decided to have the 1-131 radioactive iodine treatment done because he developed an allergic reaction to the Tapazol. That was a month ago and his health is like night and day. He no longer has the symptoms of hyperthyroidism and he is starting to gain weight again.

I look forward to several happy years with my butter love, Tucker

Tucker is a beauty. I wish him many , many more happy years! I had an ol' gal taking thyroid pills ( not so easily, I might add!) , she lived to be 19 years old.

Tucker what a gorgeous boy you are!!!

I am beyond thrilled that the iodine treatment worked for you and you no longer have to take that med. My Leonardo had the same problem. We couldn't do the iodine treatment on him but he still had a long happy life. Just left me a year ago this month at just two months shy of 19 years old.

I hope you enjoy a long long happy healthy life too. And enjoy your special day today to the fullest. I loved seeing the quilt your mommy made. How special that is!!!

Congratulations, sweetie, on being our special Cat of the Day!!!

What a beautiful cat, and beautiful quilts! Heartiest congratulations on BOTH! It takes a special person to care for a pet when they have "special needs", and so glad Tucker is getting better - it makes it easier that he's such a good boy, and he's well-deserving of being "Cat of the Day" !! Blessings to you both, and a long happy life!

That's great news!!!
I was about to congratulate little Tucker for being our COTD, but now I have something else to congratulate him for

And what a great tribute mom Christine made!! That Quilt is wonderful!!

With all my heart I pray little Tucker has many more years full of good health to enjoy a beautiful life, full of love with mom and Timon

Beautiful cat - and a beautiful quilt. So glad the treatment was successful - here's to many more years with your special friend! Tucker reminds me of our Hobo (a big kitty too, a dilute tortie, but mostly gray) who also developed hyperthyroidism later in life.... luckily we were able to enjoy many more years with her (thanks to Tapazole and "Pill Pocket" treats!) before she crossed the rainbow bridge due to heart/blood clot issues. Taking care of our pets is worth every bit of the effort because they give us so much. Take care!
