A Chance to Eat Normally Again
After a comforting stay with our founders the night before being seen by Dr. Yeh, Plaza is back at The Cats’ Cradle, awaiting his surgery. Dr. Jason Yeh, a top veterinary reconstructive surgeon, will be overseeing the procedure to realign blind Plaza’s badly broken jaw. This surgery offers a glimmer of hope for Plaza to lead a more comfortable life, despite the challenges he has faced.
Understanding the Stakes
The surgery, while filled with promise, is not without its risks. Dr. Yeh is optimistic, yet cautious, understanding the delicate balance of potential outcomes. Dr. Yeh also advised us that Plaza would need to stay at the hospital for several days after surgery, where his team could observe the friendly blind moggy around the clock and tend to any complications if necessary—and of course give this lucky cat the very best post-operative care.
This post originally carried a costed fundraising target for Plaza’s surgery and aftercare, along with a two-day deadline. Both expired in 2024 and have been taken out rather than republished as though they were still running. Surgery of this kind is paid for out of donations, and you can give at our donation page.
Your Role in Plaza’s Recovery
Support like yours makes a tangible difference in Plaza’s life. It goes directly towards the costs of his surgery and his ongoing care at The Cats’ Cradle, a beautiful house for rescued felines run by our sister Taiwan charity, ACT for Animals. Every contribution brings us closer to ensuring Plaza receives the best care possible.
None of us would like to have our bottom jaw permanently misaligned at such a large angle. This was Plaza’s chance at a much better and more comfortable life.
Your generosity is more than just a donation; it’s a beacon of hope for Plaza. As he prepares for his surgery, know that your contribution is part of his journey towards a better life. Stay tuned for updates on his progress, and thank you for being a part of his story.
