Hi, I am writing with Carla in my lap. I just joined the forums an hour ago, following the spaying and neutering of five of my best friends. It hurts my soul to intervene medically. Why doesn't the world just expand every time one of these beautiful fur babies is born? (Carla is one of the newly spayed. They put a green "tattoo" on her belly, but it looks more like a green object implanted in the skin!!)
