We were told that our 19 year old cat has a thyroid problem. In the last 6
months his appetite has increased tremendously. He howls for food starting
at 4 AM & wants to eat 6 to 7 times a day eating a small portion each time.
Other than the hunger symptoms what are the long term affects from the
problem.

I'm not sure, but there should be a lot of sites on the net that can tell
you, or your vet should have explained to your satisfaction what to expect.
