Yoda has settled down with her medication and until spring weather started to warm her to the point that she is shedding like a normal cat, we managed to stop the shedding caused by the hyperthyroid condition. She does have excess urination so we don't expect to be able to reverse the hyperT condition with radiology as she wouldn't qualify, assuming the PD, (excess urination), is caused by renal weakness. So I guess we stay on the pills, which she is doing quite well at swallowing as long as they are in gelatin capsules.
Since the loss of Hamlet Yoda has been fine with being segregated in the same room as Thumper when it is Legolas's turn to run free for exercise. In fact she 'prefers' to walk to the room on her own. Doesn't like being carried much. She does like to sit on our laps a bit now, though, especially if it was cold outside when she had her walkabout on the deck.

Speaking of cold, Yoda has found and claimed every cat spot that may at times be heated, so we managed to acquire a nice large heated bed for her that is all her own. Unfortunately we are missing an adaptor at present, but I am sure we will find one that fits before cold weather returns. In the meantime, this is her new throne:
