Hi Val, I have a quick question about neutering.....I have the 3 male rescues (T Rex, Bandit and Stubby) and they are all being neutered on the same day. They have gotten pretty territorial and adversarial. Can I put them back in their pouch together the same day? What is your recommendation? Thanks so much :) Elizabeth
