Our cat is radioactive and grumpy...

but home and cured of her hyperthyroidism Smile

She has been away after having her treatment for the last week and after a long car journey home she is not amused at being locked in a room by herself. Have put in scratching post, food maze, catnip toys and cardboard boxes and sprayed lots of feliway around. She is still crying though - it's really hard not being able to fuss her after her time away.

The kid are disappointed as she isn't glowing in the dark and doesn't appear to have developed any super powers yet. Still time though...

Oh dear. How long do you have to keep away from her for?

I'm disappointed she doesn't glow in the dark too Sad

2 weeks in pretty much total isolation with just food and litter changes, and then 2 weeks of not spending to much time in contact. I suspect the guidance errs on the side of caution.

We went to a specific clinic so she could come home after only a week rather than 3/4 weeks but she doesn't know (or appreciate) that!

2 weeks Shock mine would be so so so cross!

We left our darling in the clinic for the whole 4 weeks because we were advised that it would be confusing and upsetting for her to be confined to a small area in her own house, plus it would be dangerous for us if she came home when radioactive. The nurses spoilt her rotten and it all worked out well for her in the end.

It's lovely and very brave of you to bring her home, especially with kids in the house. Good luck.
