Prince Neptune passed

So its with an extremely heavy heart despite how long we got with Neptune that I make the official post of his passing. Earlier today I took him into the vet to be put down due to what I think was severe kidney failure and the vet said he was in septic shock. I am so glad I made the decision I did when I did. But it doesn't take away the grief I feel after losing him.

Neptune was a rescue chameleon that got shipping by a very wonderful person from the forums. She got him stable and then I did the rest of the work to get him healthy. He came from a very bad situation of severe neglect. I spent the first 2 months doing supportive care for him. He ended up living to be just under 14 years old (we aren't sure his birthday but he was about a year-eighteen months when he came to me). At the turn of the new year he would have been officially 14 give or take. He was a sassy old man who had no fear when it came to showing his opinion and biting if necessary (which in his opinion was often unless i was taking him outside lol).
 
The hardest thing, as with any pet owner, is to make the decision to put your little love to rest. It's heartbreaking to watch them decline; and when giving something all your love, you know what's best for them.

Please know that you gave all your love, and the best life possible. 💕

When you're ready to open up your heart again, the next one will be extremely loved too.
