Like everything  you can not get 'experience' till you start the first time. Those with 'experience' didnt have it to start with .......everyome needs to start somewhere to bulid up to  get 'experience'

I know that and so does everyone else but this is one of the stipulations on most of the sites that me and Lainey looked at.  There must be some out there where experience isn't necessary, I'll have to look.

I'll come!  :wow:

I'm not sure if all the organisations work the same but I know when we were going through, most did say that you had to have experience in trapping  :tired:  There must be a way round it as it's not exactly rocket science, I suppose all that's needed is common sense and knowing not to put your hands in with a feral cat  :shy:  Hopefully by next year, me and Lainey can get something sorted  ;)

DO NOT BREED OR BUY WHILE SHELTER ANIMALS DIE

I believe I am not interested to know whether Vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn't. To know that the results are profitable to the race would not remove my hostility to it.  Mark Twain

If only we were vets....

Barcelona also has lots and lots of ferals

thanks Dawn, it would be a great place to have a working holiday its only a couple of miles from Assisi so I wondered, because of St Francis, if there would be something local but just couldn't find out and was only there for 5 days

back from Italy and shocked at the number of ferals, not something I've ever experienced before in 16 years of going there  - does anyone know if other countries have neutering organisations??  my oh actually wanted to bring home a torti kitten but I couldn't bring myself to look
