The vet also told us it's really rare in dogs, especially little dogs, much rarer than in cats, and in dogs, it's usually caused by thyroid cancer, so we're freaking out again. Damn it. We're getting her much more thoroughly checked out tomorrow by a specialist.
Good thing about your cat. My friend's mom had hyperthyroid, and they ended up having to just take it out and do replacement therapy. She was pretty emaciated before the surgery.
