Please help with removing nasal polyp.
Hello,
My girlfriend has a cat she rescued almost 10 years ago. Her name is Kitty.
She has quite a bit of difficulty breathing. We have taken here to and from several local veterinary hospitals and they have prescribed various antibiotics and steroids.
After almost 6 months these seem to offer little relief to our poor little Kitty.
I am willing and able to drive Kitty anywhere within 500miles to try to remove the polyp. We can stay for a few days if you need us to.
The local hospitals want over $10k total in several rounds of scans, xrays and preoperative over several weeks. We can’t afford this. Someone will be be able to make a real difference in Kitty’s life they would agree to meet with her and do what they can.
I would also add that my girlfriend has a deep love of animals. She regularly helps local shelters and hard luck cases like when she found Kitty. She cleans and grooms pets for a living and volunteers her services to local shelters. You would be making an incredible gift to her. I don’t have $10000 but I would gladly pay fairly for the procedure and arrange for our travel to you.
Looking forward to your reply.
Thank you,
Chris
I think I might be able to help. I’ll look into this immediately and let you know what I find out before today’s end.
Respectfully,
Brian
Where are you located?
Hi Brian, I am in Ottawa, Canada. I actually reached to your clinic…Dr. Krista Magnifico fyi.
Oh fantastic that’s exactly who I reached out to!
Many thanks. Fingers crossed.
Hello.
I would be happy to help BUT I do not have a scope to do what the specialist would do. So unless I can see it behind the soft palate to avulse it I can’t do what they can do. Also polyps are much less common in older cats (like over 3 years old). It is more likely to be either infection or mass (possibly cancerous).
