So, we got our cat treated about a month after he was diagnosed. He is currently in strict quarantine and we are nearing week 3 of quarantine.
Our hospital advised 4 weeks of quarantine (we have little children and other pets) but our quarantined cat is getting depressed staying by himself. He has always been very social so this is even more difficult for him. We visit him multiple times a day, feed him, play with him but of course, we were told not to have prolonged exposure.
My question is whether we can bring him home and resume normality after week 3. Some web sites suggest 3 weeks and our hospital told us 4 weeks but it is getting difficult containing him. Anyone have experience of integrating their radio iodine therapy cat earlier than 4 weeks? Can I assume it will be safe or should I stick to doctor's orders?
