Influence of Owner Personality and Other Owner-, Cat- and Treatment-Related Factors on the Perception of Quality of Life in Cats With Hyperthyroidism
When interpreting HRQoL data, the potential impact of the personality domain negative emotionality (tendency to experience anxiety, fear, negative emotions) should be considered. Based on HRQoL, RAIT is the treatment of choice, whereas LID or no treatment are the least favored options. These findings should be considered when counseling owners about their cats' hyperthyroidism and its management.
