cheryl2586 3,053 Posted December 28, 2012 My husband and I rescue mistreated reptiles. These babies were in the worst conditions when we got them. BJ is just a baby that we got yesterday. A handsome little guy. Anastasia we have had for two years. She had severe Calcium deficiency and was paralyzed. With proper vet care and our love she is now completely healed and is moving about freely. Only damage left is one leg that does not fuction all the way. Our love for these babies is ever lasting. If you want an iguana just know they are not simple creatures to keep. They require a lot of work, expensive to feed, and very large enclosures as the get to be six feet long. Love my babies. Our new Baby BJ Anastasia meets BJ but she was not happy. He happily went back to his own habitat. We have had Anastasia for Two years.

cheryl2586 3,053 Posted January 6, 2013 I hate to see any mistreated animals ever. They can not help themselves. We are the ones who have domesticated cats, dogs, reptiles. So we should take care of them not abuse them. Any one that can just let their animals go likea piece of garbage deserves to be treated the same way. When you take on the role as a parent for animals you know it is for the life time of that animal. No excuse is a good one to drop them off at a shelter just because you have to move, can't take them with you, cant feed them or take them to the vet. You know that when you get them that all these things can happen so if you can't commit for the life of the pet then don't get any. 2 elcee and CHEZNOEL reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CHEZNOEL 4,061 Posted January 6, 2013 Amen Cheryl. I have worked with rescued dogs and cats for years. How is little BJ adjusting? I am sure he will thrive on your love and care! :wub: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheryl2586 3,053 Posted January 6, 2013 He is doing great. Still has some wounds healing but he is doing just fine, eating, growing, shedding normally. Taming him will be the hardest because they are so frightened when they are so little. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
