Maintaining a quality of life for all our rescues is of utmost importance. When Sir Winston lost his balance and had trouble seeing last month he was immediately seen by our local veterinarian. He was put on ear drops with little improvement, so it was recommended we take him to a specialist at Access Vet Urgent Care in Woodland Hills.
A huge polyp was found deep under the eardrum which could ultimately result in blindness if left untreated. Major surgery was done and the specialist has hopes for a full recovery given his young age and otherwise healthy condition.
Although on the quiet side, one year old Sir Winston loved playing with the kittens, cat treats and cuddling on laps. After surgery he now requires strong medication and a quiet environment for up to four weeks. We will ensure, however, he gets lots of attention in his temporary suite in the upstairs vetting room.
Sir Winston thanks you!
