"As for the hyperthyroid meds -- if he can eat at all you can crush the pills up (Murphy only gets 1/4 of a tiny pill) and sprinkle it over just a little bit of food."
Its not giving him the pill that worries me (if I can inject him every morning, I can handle a pill), its the reaction that the drug may have with his insulin, causing issues with his diabetes :/
I'll just see what the vet says when they call and go from there. Thanks for the encouragement though! I've met a lot of people that think I'm nuts for caring for him as I had, so its nice to hear from other pet owners that go through these kinds of regimens.
