Default Urgent purrs needed please

Please can I have some purrs for my Kotyo, who is in the vet hospital
right now? The vet says he has a hole in his trachea, and when he
breathes in air is going under his skin instead of going into his lungs.
They have put in a tube into his side which is supposed to let the air
escape, and he is in an oxygen cage so that his lungs can get enough oxygen.

I just don't know what to do. Just a few hours ago he was perfectly
fine. He was begging to get his lunch early. My mom gave him some of his
favorite - cucumber. Just 4 or 5 tiny little pieces, same as he has had
for years. He ate them and he immediately started choking, pawing at the
right side of his throat, trying to throw up. We rushed him to the vet,
and spent the next few hours sitting in the waiting room while they
worked to stabilize him. The best guess is that he was eating too
greedily, and inhaled one of the pieces of cucumber... But how that
could cause a hole in his trachea, I don't know. Cucumber is soft, and
it was a tiny bit - smaller than a regular piece of kibble. The vet said
he has never seen anything like this before...

So right now they are keeping him in the hospital and hoping that the
hole will heal on its own. If it is a small hole, it should heal by
itself. If it does not heal in a few days, they will have to operate to
try to find it and close it.

I just want my little monster to be ok. Please purr for him.

Nadia, Kotyo and Sweety
