Frankie’s Friends’ Vet Care for Rescues Grant Program helped Sir Wobbleton receive PRAA surgery.

When our wobbly boy was diagnosed with Persistent Right Aortic Arch (PRAA), we knew he would need specialized surgery to give him the healthy future every kitten deserves.

While Wobbleton outwardly presents with the milder form of CH, he has also been facing a much more serious challenge: persistent regurgitation and vomiting. Over the past several weeks, this little guy has undergone multiple rounds of diagnostics, including radiographs, bloodwork, barium studies, and a CT scan, all in search of answers.

We finally have one: Wobbleton has been diagnosed with a persistent right aortic arch (PRAA). While we’re grateful to finally understand what has been causing his struggles, this diagnosis also means he will need surgical intervention — and in his case, the sooner the better.

UPDATE: Sir Wobbleton is home! 🧡
He did amazing during surgery and is already keeping everyone on their toes—he even tried to speed up his discharge on day 2 by removing his own chest tube! 😅The support for Wobbles has been overwhelming, and we can’t thank you all enough.
