I think from now on I'm just going to rescue all the rest of the snakes & animals I get. They say rescued animals make the best pets and I am a firm believer behind that!
Well last night right around midnight I get a call from an unknown # on my cell. For whatever reason I answerd it. Normally I don't answer unknown #'s.Well thinking it may be a friend who had a little bit to much to drink needing a ride home or something like that.I go out of my way for friends who are in need like that. I'd rather have them wake me up at 2am in a drunken state asking for a ride then to get behind the wheel :eek: and attempt to make it home for their safty and for whoever else may be out on the road at that time's safty!
Nope I was wrong. It was a guy who had a friend that knew a friend who knew me and knew that I had snakes and other animals. Well needless to say my # got to him. He told me that he has an adult leo gecko who needs a new home a.s.a.p because him and his wife are on the outs and yadda yadda yadda he's don't really have steady place to live and needs to find a good home for his buddy.
Soooo this afternoon I will be taking a drive and meeting up with this guy who has this leo.I have no idea if he is coming with anything or what kind of condition he/she is in, etc. I hope he is in some what good heath since this guy seems to really care/love "his little buddy". So I'm crossing my fingers that this guy/girl is in good condition.
Well I'm glad today there is/was a reptile show going on because I dumped my plans for this morning to drive up there. Got some's, some
's and mealworms (we need a mealworm icon!!), a new hide, a heat mat, cal&vit dust, water dish and some sand for this new comer. I also called a buddy who is a old ex herp vet to stay on "stand by"
for a call from me in case this guy needs to see someone.
Now if all goes well I won't have to back out on my dinner plans (date) I have with a guy I've liked for some time now....Worse comes to worse I may have to but hey... my animals (my babies) come first, friends come second and what can I say... guys come last!
AND YES I POST AN UPDATE AND PICTURES OF HE/SHE HERE LATER ON THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING IF ALL GOES WELL... *crosses fingers*
