    In a tough situation :(

    Hey all...so the company I work for souls out to a larger company which resulted in my job being changed to something completely different. I'm not too happy about it so I am applying for the police department since I graduated with a criminal justice degree. The only drawback is that CLEET is THREE months...I don't know what I would do with my 4 snakes...

    Re: In a tough situation :(

    Maybe someone on this forum - that lives near you could foster them while you are away. I've seen this done here before. I would foster them if I wasn't sooo far away.

    Keep us posted on how things work out.

    Re: In a tough situation :(

    Hopefully you'll find someone within a reasonable distance to care for them while you're away. I'd do up at least a brief contract outlining the care you expect them to receive, and what happens if they need vet care at a minimum. Cover your butt with both hands, as my old DI used to say.

    Good luck!
