Sherman’s Story

Sherman came to us from the SCPA on emergency, after being found on the street and struggling to breathe. Sherman was an intact male stray cat, that was filthy and run down, and we quickly diagnosed him with a traumatic diaphragmatic hernia ( he had trauma that resulted in a diaphragmatic tear, and his intestines and stomach were displaced into his chest cavity, compressing his lungs severely ). We quickly rushed him into emergency surgery . The veterinarian and team donated their time and supplies to save his life. The surgery was lengthy and complex, and we weren’t sure if he would make it. Each day post op, he got stronger and stronger and his breathing gradually normalized. He was adopted by a lovely family, who ventured into having their first pet! Now Sherman is well loved, and we receive regular updates with his seasonal costumes, and it makes us so happy to see Sherman living his best life.
