Trying to get females fixed can be tough, especially when everyone's booked for like 4 months... fortunately we've got plans for them and their 7 kids. Tabby on the right is mom to the 3 indoors, and the one on the left is the Tabbys mom.

4 months for a vet procedure ?
Yeah, the low cost spay/neuter clinics around me are booked solid and have been for years. I had to book mine 2 or 3 months out, and it wasn't even a true "low cost" clinic.
Looking at pricing at regular vet clinics, spay can be $500-700, and there's extra fees if she happens to be in heat or pregnant when your appointment finally rolls around, and it's not clear from my brief search whether those prices include anesthesia, pre-op blood work, etc. The low cost clinics range from free to $120 for spay.
One that isn't a couple hundred, but yeah, the most trusted for how much I'm willing to pay is nearly booked solid most of the year. That and of course having the time to do it
