My cat is 17 years old. He has been hyperthyroid for a few years and given methimazole but the original dosage is not apparently working now, I took him to the vet on Friday they said he's hyperthyroid again and also in kidney failure and needed a three-day hospitalization for IV fluids (along with increased medication dosage). Before I took him there, he was acting totally normally except eating and drinking and urinating excessively, no weight loss. Yesterday I visited after 24 hours and he was meowing a lot in his normal tone at me to let me know he was upset. Today I visited him after 48 hours and he had extremely weak vocalizations and acted like he didn't know who I am, he was also yowling and kept trying to get off my lap and hide in the cabinets although his walking and jumping seemed normal. The vet said he is fine, eating, drinking and defecating, but I am very concerned at this sudden change in behavior. Is this normal because he is stressed at being at the vet or is something else wrong?
