Two cases of feline oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma are described. In both cases, diagnosis was achieved by radiography, endoscopy and cytology, and later confirmed by histology. One cat underwent oesophagectomy followed by end‐to‐end anastomosis, but died three days postsurgery; the second cat was euthanased after diagnosis.
