Maybe I'm not looking in the right place, but where would I add my veterinarian to the data base of FIV/FeLV- friendly vets? Natalie

PLEASE enter your good vets' info into the database at www.adopt.bemikitties.com so we know where to find help when it's needed. thanks. MC -- Spay & Neuter Your Neighbors!
