Holistic Pet Care - Hyperthyroidism in Cats

Holistic cat products help but what about the products within your home that may be detrimental to you and your cat's health?

Hyperthyroidism in Cats has been increasing since the 70's and the 80's was an extremely bad decade. A big change, for us all, in the 80's was the introduction of PBDE's as a flame retardant in many products. Interestingly enough a study performed in 2007 found that cats have high levels of PBDEs. According to a study in 2004 people in the US have the highest levels of PBDEs in the world.

Watch the video here - http://blog.lifesabundance.com/post/2011/01/20/Feline-Hyperthyroidism.aspx?realname=20021272 -  to learn about the signs of hyperthyroidism in cats as well as treatments available. If you see the signs in your cat make an appointment with your vet immediately.
