Gloria and Sharyl On the website you listed below is Prevent A Litter which is also in Richmond, Va but There are several locations much closer. In Richmond the fee is $25 male and $35 females and I believe ferals are free, they will clpi the ear. No appt needed for ferals because you have to trap them. I could call Prevent A litter closest to you. I gave you the number to the one in Richmond but I see others are closer to you. Good Luck
