Wendy,
Be sure when you talk to them to let them know you are willing to do the
work and follow up. We're heading into heavy kitten season and every
rescue you call will be even more overwhelmed than usual. Someone will
be much more likely to help you if they don't suspect you are one of
those callers that is looking to dump their responsibility on a rescue's
already heavy burden. If you first thank them for all they do, then
tell them you are looking for their expertise, the loan of equipment,
and the name of a vet in your area that will work with feral neuters
they will probably be happy to help you help them get one more
aggressive male on the street neutered. Ask them if it might be
possible to go through their vet in order to get their group discount.
(They may even offer to pay for his neuter and shots if they have enough
money in the till).
P.S. Do you still have that Pit rescue you and your husband found on
the street? How's he working out?
Thanks Wendy for being someone that cares enough to help those in need,
Nina
