Excellent blog! Thank you so much for your insight and GREAT ideas! Unfortunately, Molly is QUITE clever and she knows that I am the source of the water when she gets too close. I have my work cut out for me, hopefully some of your tips will work :)

Jake is regaining use of his legs little by little each day. Today is his vet appointment, please keep us in your thoughts :)

After an anxiety filled day at work, wondering how Jake was doing, I'm finally home and Jake is still alert and his sweet self. Still dragging his poor gimpy rear legs, but he is managing to not fall and staying at the top of his home, where it's nice and warm. He is so precious to me, I really...

I don't have any advice or words of wisdom to offer, I just wanted to say that I hope all turns out well. Oh, and she is absolutely adorable, with her pudgy little self :p

Jake has an appointment on Wednesday to see a vet who is actually recommended on THIS site! :D

Oh dear, I am terribly sorry for your loss. I can't imagine the pain...just dealing with an injured cham is bad enough. I really hope that the support that this community is providing will help you heal. In my thoughts and prayers.

Yeah...that didn't really hit me until we got home. They threw so much info at us, and didn't give ANY follow up instructions. Let's not mention the fussy and crabby 5 year old that was distracting me. But, like I said, I'm going to take him to a REAL vet. Thank you EVERYONE so much for your...

I was actually quite shocked that he didn't do an x-ray or at least blood work. I got a couple of references to vets with a lot of chameleon experience, I just need to find the money for another visit. He seems to have regained a TINY bit of use in his legs...but I doubt he will ever regain...

The vet said that x-rays would be pointless because nothing would show up due to the low bone density. I explained to him that Jake was not weak before this happened, but he just seemed so insistent on MBD. I was so terribly upset that I didn't have the energy to argue with him. Besides the fact...

This is from yesterday. The swelling in the gular region was, per the vet, because of the stress from the injury. This was not present until the incident yesterday. It has subsided quite a bit as of this morning. from last week 2-3 weeks ago about a month ago

When I took Jake to the vet yesterday, I was startled to hear that he has advanced MBD. I keep an eye out for the tell-tale signs, and I haven't seen a single one. So he is on calcium glubionate, as well as anti-inflammatories for the injury. I use a 10.0 repti-glo tube bulb and his basking bulb...

I appreciate the constructive feedback. As for the comments about killing my cat and feeling sorry for my pets, find something more productive to do with your time. You are no better than high school bullies. You know absolutely nothing about me because if you did, kicking me while I'm down...

The first time he was injured he was in a different cage, the lid was not secured properly - my fault. Apparently I forgot to latch the top of the cage door yesterday before we left. Otherwise, the cat wouldn't have been able to get to him. Again, my fault, and I'm on the verge of a full blown...

I can't believe that I'm having to post about this again. We spent the night at a friend's last night and when we got home about an hour ago, . Jake's cage door was hanging open, almost bent in half. When I found him, he was all scratched up like last time, but he also has shallow wounds that...

I lost one pupa last week, but the other six are doing great. Are there any signs to look out for that indicate they are close too emergence?

I can't see the pic :(

I know this is a SUPER old thread, but I LOVE the googly eye pic! :p

either one of these recent shots of Bogart should be entered into June's photo contest!
