Oh I so agree SM, the shelter I voluteer at does spaying and neutering for cats and dogs for only $10, who can't afford that, if you can't, you shouldn't have it? I spread the word as much as possible. Every animal is truly loved, just no other option. Thanks for the support SM.
I would love to have some sort of legislation passed some day that you can be ticketed and fined for having an animal that isn't fixed, epecially if its running free, unless your a registered breeder. Maybe thats a good way I could try to tackle the problem...hmmmmm{3BK thinking.!.!.!.!.ouch}

I think that my county must be kind of unique in this practice, but anyone who lives within the county limits can go to the city run shelter here and obtain a voucher of $70 per animal for spaying. You have to take proof of residency, proof of the first shots, and the kitty or dog, who must be wearing a collar with their rabies tag on it. They don't do much except compare the tag that the animal is wearing to the shot record. Then they give you a voucher to take to the vet of your choosing. Our vet didn't even charge $70 per kitty to spa the girls.
I think that somehow that service is wrapped up in our taxes but the shame of it is that lots of people don't even know that our city provides those vouchers. I wouldn't have known if they hadn't told me at the vet clinic.

We have vets that have brought in the free and reduced spay and neuter bus. It makes a difference. I wish that our local vets would also lower their fee. It cost me $75 for Teaser and $50 for Sox. Deuter goes next month. With shots and everything it is always over $100 per animal. That is why so many people don't spay and neuter. They have a hard time with the fees.

It's true, SM. That's why I was totally amazed to find that my city does these vouchers. But, the question is.... why on earth don't they advertise that???? Really, if my vet had not told me I would never have known.

WW, where do you live? That sounds wonderful!!!! I'm still in a quandry about getting my patio kitties their shots, and fixed. When I say I literally have to skip at least 1 bill a month, sometimes 2, I'm not kidding. I need a job so badly--or I'd setting for a flurry of new clients. In the meantime, I've *got* to find a way to take care of these babies!!!

Returning to the Pepper Project specifically, I think it's starting to gel. OW had a bad experience that has prompted her to act with passion. I totally understand that...it's the same kind of emotion that caused me to get so empassioned about the trolls on TDK.
OW asked us to join the team...and we have, readily...and many people have given excellent input. Seems OW has taken it all into consideration and is using what she sees as the best parts of our input. Am I correct so far, OW? Let me know.
