Fundraiser Profile Image

Sweet young kitty Cockatoo has been living with painful, itchy ears caused by polyps deep in both ears. Despite our veterinary team's attempts, the polyps couldn’t be removed – and x-rays showed changes to the bulla (the bony structure containing her middle ears).

After exhausting all of our in-house treatment options, our veterinary team determined that Cockatoo needs specialist surgery called a Ventral Bulla Osteotomy (VBO) in both ears. This procedure will clean out the affected tissue and remove the polyps, but seeing a specialist comes at a significant cost.

Cockatoo is only a year old, and she deserves to live a long, happy life without constant pain. Can you help her get the surgery she needs to thrive?

Email updates showing Cockatoo's progress will be provided to those who donate towards her care. 


Care requirements include x-rays, ear medications, two VBO surgeries with a specialist, vaccinations, spay surgery and daily care until Cockatoo is ready for adoption. 

If the amount raised for Cockatoo exceeds her cost of care, funds will help other animals in need.

Please note that when donating to more than one animal, your credit card may be flagged for unusual activity. We recommend waiting a few minutes between transactions to prevent this error. Thank you for your patience!
