Susan,

I believe you might need to reread my messages.

He's being neutered at a vet I trust. I have NOT griped over the price or the 
procedure. I trust this vet, and he's good friends with my large animal vet. 
He's an excellent vet. I'm not changing vets to save a few dollars. 

It's the day in day out cost of having 2 cats and the fact that I'm scheduled 
to work 80+ hours and he's a very people oriented cat. He needs a home where 
people are for a while...

Steph
