'Neuter your ex' program raising money for ARL
A new fundraiser at the Animal Rescue League of Iowa is turning broken hearts and some lingering hard feelings into a few thousand bucks.
For $15 you can name a feral cat after an ex-partner, then they'll be spayed or neutered before being released in the ARL's trap-neuter-return program.
ARL officials in Des Moines say they already have received about 300 names. And they're willing to make a deal: it's one name for $15 but 5 for $50 and 10 for $100.
Got an ex you want to neuter? You have until Feb. 14, which just so happens to be Valentine's Day, to make your $15 donation in your ex's name on the ARL's website.
"Give your ex a proper sendoff (you know Brad and Chad deserves the snippy-snip), heal your heart, and help control the community cat population at the same time," they said online.
UPDATE: With 2 days remaining, ARL says 'neuter your ex' has been a hit
