I agree with Mark ... you are probably best  contacting with RCVS and asking them about this in the first instance. http://www.rcvs.org.uk/
In ancient times cats were worshiped as gods; they have not forgotten this.

Sorry Gill,

It should have said "not laughing Cosmic" as the header says "don't laugh"

I know you wouldn't laugh at a kitty (or their owner) with problems  :-:

I believe I am not interested to know whether Vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn't. To know that the results are profitable to the race would not remove my hostility to it.  Mark Twain

I think it's wonderful you're looking into options to make Mangos life easier. I don't know much about persians, so I'll refrain from commenting any further!

No laughing Gill,

I'm sure this would help as if it improved air flow, it would no doubt help. As Gill said its finding a surgeon that woud be able to peform the operation. It seems Ameica is far more advanced with things like that than here. It might be worth speaking to someone at RCVS to see if they could give you any info.

Good luck

Mark

I think it depends on whether there is a qualified surgeon over here who has done this and the guy in the link has only done 10 cats with a laser and only 30 without, and whther Mango falls it to the extreme category where it says it will not help.

There would always be a higher risk with inexperienced surgeons and not the right equipment.
