try www.neuterspay.org under low-cost resources. database is huge
so takes awhile to load; it's not totally up-to-date because i
haven't been on top of it, but at the time, it was THE most
accurate in the country. (that said, no sooner had i entered a
program than the info changed. or the program got cancelled
sigh.)
gloria, check and see if yours are listed.

Thanks Anita. I have heard back from both and neither have a vet
in my area. Will just start saving up money and pursue finding
sponsors for the kitties.

Oops - not reading my email in sequence, sorry. Well, hope you
find something a lot less than $100 per.

Does Spay USA have a branch in your state? In Georgia (Spay

at participating vets. They send a list of those vets when they
send your certificates.

Thanks Gloria. So far it looks like the best I'm going to be able
to do on the neutering is $100. There is a chance the Tidewater
SPCA Neuter Scooter will come over to the Eastern Shore and I could
save $25. I can afford to care for the 2 I have rescued. I'll
have to work on colony one cat at a time as my budget allows. I am
trying to recruit local sponsors to help with the cost. Local SPCA
doesn't believe in TNR for ferals. I just don't want to have to
tell the vet anything when I bring in a colony kitty.

That's wonderful that you're doing this. Would be nice if you
could find a low-cost spay neuter clinic, or a free service, to
help fund the neutering. RE your question about telling the vet, I
don't know. If 2 are positive, still doesn't mean all the others
are, although of course there's a chance. Any vet should be aware
that if the kitty hasn't been tested, there's a potential for FELV
or FIV. Neutering is the key to preventing the spread of this, as
I understand. Least my take on it. Hope you find a good option
for low cost or free neutering.

I had been feeding a group of dumpster 8 kittens and ended up
rescuing 2, Sissy and Rocket, when they were about 12 weeks old.
On their 1st vet visit both tested FeLV+. I will have both
retested the end of April to see if they are still positive. I
have them quarantined in my garage. They are eating Iams canned
kitten food supplemented with a Super B Complex, Lactoferrin and
DMG. So far they are responding well and seem very healthy. Both
have had their kitten shots and been wormed.
If they stay positive I will either find a forever home for them or
build an enclosure onto the garage for them. I have 2 indoor
kitties and one has CRF so am concerned about bringing them into
the house.
My questions concern the rest of the colony which includes at least
4 adults. I can not take all of them in. My plan had been to TNR
the colony (trap/neuter/release). The vet is recommending
euthanizing the entire colony if these 2 stay positive. I am not
sure where I will be able to get then neutered if they are
positive. And I can not trap them just to have them euthanized.
That may be the best thing to do but I just can't do it. Is there
any info on how to deal with a FeLV+ feral colony? Any advise on
how to get them neutered? Am I obligated to tell the vet about the
potential for FeLV when having them neutered?
