Pectus Kitten makes the Manchester News

In March this year Tim Charlesworth blogged about Pectus Excavatum in kittens and offered to see kittens with this condition at a reduced cost to aid his research. A Manchester vet spotted Tim’s blog in late May and made contact regarding an 11 week old kitten called Harry being fostered by a trainee vet nurse. Harry underwent surgery which was such a success that he made the Manchester News.

Harry’s Manchester vets reports  “he is doing really well, and his post op radiographs looked excellent  🙂 …
His owner says he is bombing around and the nurses say he was on top form when he was in for his cast off”
