Neutering of male Cats needs gov't approval?????
We have a male cat that we need to get 'fixed'.
A couple of vets we talked to didn't want to do it.
Now, after calling QAWS, they have said that an approval from the government is required - once that application is approved QAWS has a vet that can do it.
Are you SERIOUS?!?!?!?!?! No wonder the cat population is so out of control! The gov't wants to actually approve neutering the animal?! Im baffled !
Now the question - where is this place that one has to go to for this bloody application???
And, has anyone had to go through this before?
There's never been a need to get approval for neutering! I think there might have been a misunderstanding when you spoke to QAWS!
You were probably told about the free neutering scheme where you have to take the cat to the Ministry of Environment, Animal Resource Department on Airport Road. They've been doing a free trap, neuter, release program for the stray cats for 3 years now and they neuter dozens every day :)
All, thanks so much!
Going to get in contact with Doha Vets asap (before I kill this cat!).
Great!
You don't need permission - take them to Doha Vets
I dont think it is required .Bring the pet to us at cultural village, we will do it.
