    Pectus Excavatum in kitten.

    The 'tomorrow' thing does seem a little dramatic. However time is of the essence.. little kittens grow quickly. I had thought that, by four months it was going beyond the time for the easier option. That's probably why they're being urgent. I can only tell you of my experience.. Sundar's...
