Thanks go out to Leslie, a reader who sent this information to me about WARL. Following is her experience with WARL:


"We had two of our cats neutered there (the cats do have a regular vet as well, but we were slightly short of cash at the time). These were the cats of our not-so-good tenants, who did not pay rent for a considerable time; we were out of pocket from that and from cleaning up the apartment, as well as taking in their astoundingly sweet unneutered kitties.


Yes, they had an intact tom and brought an unspayed female kitten into the same household when they didn't have the money to get the tom neutered or vaccinated, even after I gave them information about low-cost vet care. (I'm not bitter; the cats are darlings)"


The surgery was done "with good results - the only problem, a minor one, was that they did an interesting job shaving the girl-kitten, in that she had bare belly a good third of the way up one side and nearly halfway up the other. Being a longhaired kitten, she looked kind of silly."
