She's the sweetest cat on the planet, she doesn't fight at all when we feed her through the tube, she even cuddled the heck out the vets when they gave her shots.

Her surgery was to correct a cleft soft palette, basically a big hole in the back of her throat connecting to her nasal passageways. Made it hard for her to eat and meow, probably hurt a lot as food would make it's way up into her sinuses.

Normal operation for this birth defect is to put the kitten down, but she stole our hearts so completely that it was worth it to us to get her fixed ๐Ÿ’˜

Can we have more pictures of this brave little kitty?

Thank you for being a loving human.
