It's legal because nobody wants to go to bat for reptiles.. They aren't interactive like birds. They aren't cute and fuzzy like rodents or personable like dogs and cats. I think their care and welfare gets overlooked because, for many people, it's easier to "humanize" an animal that dances...

The problem here is that the department manager is known to ignore a lot of established protocols. If an animal dies they just toss it out with the trash, instead of logging it in a book and reporting it like they are supposed to. =\ While my BF is still working at this store, there's not...

So I went into petsmart to see her today. She doesn't look terribly ill, but she is fairly underweight. Her colors are definitely faded and she is a little lethargic. However given that her condition isn't horrible and she is still eating and drinking, she might pull through if she is put in...

I'll also add real quick that I rescued a green iguana back when I was a teenager, so I know how expensive vet care can be for an animal like this. The first vet visit alone was $500. I am by no means optimistic that she will make a turn-around. I just feel obligated to try and do...

My boyfriend works at a Petsmart and there is a young female Jackson's in the sick room who's health has been declining over the past month. It's still eating and drinking, but its color is faded and it is very thin and lethargic. The store is willing to sell it to me for next to nothing, but...
