Thanks to your help, we were able to give a stray cat a soft palate plastic surgery to expand the nasopharynx. Now the cat can breathe freely again, and eat without difficulty. After the operation, Barsik was seen by his future owners. And now the cat is already living in his house.

Thank you for helping the Badger cat become healthy and at home!

About the campaign

Homeless cat Barsik needs surgery so he can breathe freely

Thanks to your help we were able to do a CT scan for our homeless cat Barsik. According to its results the cat was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal stenosis, or simply - narrowing of the nasopharynx, because of which it is impossible to breathe freely not only through the nose, but also through the mouth, and this causes hypoxia (insufficient oxygen supply) of the brain.

And the only method of correction of such pathology is surgery on the soft palate - its plasticisation, widening of the nasopharyngeal passage.
