Cat Dad has been taking a little heat in the comments lately about Brisket’s future, but it’s time to give credit where it’s due! 👏
Many people don't know how Cat Dad stepped up big time for the tiny boss. Did you know that there isn't a commercial chest plate available for tiny kittens undergoing pectus excavatum surgery? They have a few options for larger kittens and cats, but Brisket was just barely over a pound when he needed surgery and there was not a chest plate to be found in his size.
Cat Dad spent hours hunting down the right size PVC pipe, hand-cutting it, and sanding every edge so it wouldn't rub or irritate fragile skin. Thanks to his custom fit, Brisket came out of that procedure without a single sore, which is almost unheard of!
On top of playing lead engineer, Cat Dad was there the day Brisket needed it most. He volunteered his time to shave, prep, and monitor anesthesia during Brisky's surgery. And all those amazingly captured Brisket memories? That was Cat Dad behind the camera 📸
There are big decisions ahead of us, but just know that Cat Dad is not the enemy. He may not say it out loud, but Cat Dad's actions show his love for Brisket is undeniable. ❤️🐾
