Hyperthyroidism in cats is caused by an increase in production of thyroid hormones known as T3 and T4. These hormones are produced by an enlarged thyroid gland in your feline friend’s neck. Researchers believe that this enlargement of the thyroid gland is non-cancerous in most instances. However, there are some rare cases when hyperthyroid disease is caused by malignant tumors known as thyroid adenocarcinomas. The cause of this condition is unknown. Researchers suspect contributing factors that include: diet deficiencies, excess compounds in the diet, and frequent exposure to thyroid-disrupting chemicals found in cat food or the environment. 

Since thyroid hormones are distributed throughout most organs in a cat’s body, secondary issues tend to arise when the condition is present. The most common clinical signs are weight loss, increased appetite, and lots of drinking and urination. It may also cause vomiting, diarrhea, and hyperactive behavior. Your fur baby may also neglect daily grooming. So, their coat may look matted or greasy.
