Cinnabear’s lungs were so compressed she wasn’t getting enough oxygen, and her heart was being displaced by severe pectus excavatum. At just 1.1 pounds, she underwent correction surgery at a specialty veterinary facility, and her ribcage was expanded by 50 to 70 percent, bringing immediate improvement to her breathing. Cinnabear healed beautifully and found her forever home, expected to lead a full and healthy life ahead.
