Imagine coming to work and finding a cat carrier with a note that simply says, “Help Me.” This is how Adele, a beautiful 1-year-old Persian cat, arrived at Toronto Humane Society. She was meowing in distress, eager to escape her confines.

At first, Adele appeared healthy, though a bit anxious. However, her condition soon worsened. She refused food and began vomiting. Further examinations revealed a congenital malformation in her diaphragm, causing her liver to press against her heart—a life-threatening condition that required immediate surgery.
