The poor animals! I don't understand how people abanden pets.

wow that is just crazy!

That monitor looked like it had a mite on it's neck.

Nice black motley though, are you sure the person just didn't die or something?

Holy crap, I think the snake I just adopted came from there! The rescue lady said he had been taken from a house with tons of other animals (she said either 20 or 50 snakes) and the people weren't taking care of them. I wonder...

That's sad.

[waltah!]

Yet another story of responsible pet ownership. That really is sad.

I'd like to break somebody's legs.

Theres never a need to ABANDON an animal

That's the problem with the exotics industry... it's been underground for so many years it attracts some real scumbags. Those poor animals. It's nice to see that the media didn't spin this to look bad for the animals but instead more of a sympathy story for them. That's rare these days.
