no more puddy tats!

I have been feeding many stray cats; trying to keep them warm and somewhat sheltered in my back yard.  This past summer there were at least 8 kittens born.  At this point I am feeding at least a dozen cats.  I have been paying to get them spayed and neutered, which involves trapping, taking to vet, keeping in house while recover for a couple of days, then release.  This is absolutely necessary to keep population down.  I earn $8.25 an hour, so this is quite difficult.  I know this is not a unique situation, but I'm trying to do what I can.  I encourage people to spay and neuter their pets and keep them from roaming.  If you cannot keep them, take them to a shelter.  Thanks for your compassion and understanding.
