Meowmy is going to trap us?!

i overheard our meowmy talking today about getting traps for us ferals. Her fiance was talking to someone at the feed store, who also feeds a feral colony, who gave him some information about the trap, neuter, return program in our area. Meowmy was very happy because when she tried to find info before, she couldn't. He said the SPCA would give her vouchers for all the ferals she looks after, and they would help cover the expense of a vet visit. The vet will give us shots, neuter or spay us, de-flea us, and check us over.

The one thing that scares meowmy is that he said the vet would put us down if we were sick. She doesn't yet know what the criteria is for being put down, but she won't trap us until she finds out. I know this trapping thing will help us, but I'm still a little scared about it. She is more than willing to put up extra money if we need medicine or a minor operation that will save us. She doesn't want to take us to a vet that will put us down just because we are sick with something treatable.

Well, that's all for now. I will let you know about this whole trapping issue thing when meowmy talks to the SPCA some more.
