Neutering is quite expensive in Qatar. Males can be up to QR500 and females up to QR800. The ministry vet will do free vaccinations and neuterings but they aren't as fantastic as the western vets (the cat comes home purple from antibiotic spray!).

We always have kittens at the shelter that need a couple of weeks in a foster home to fatten them up or keep them until they're old enough to be rehomed. With kittens (and puppies) we only foster out the ones that really need it and then as soon as they are healthy/of good weight/old enough, they come straight back in for rehoming. We've found it really difficult to rehome from foster homes as most people come to the shelter to look at them all.

If you're interested in fostering, please come down to QAWS any afternoon except Wednesdays between 4pm and 6pm to meet our little ones and talk to someone about whats involved :D
