I know how disappointing it is when you're so attached, and feel like you're doing everything you can, only to have the outcome turn out poorly.

    In your letter to Petsmart - which I think is a must - I would focus on the heartbreak this has caused, instead of the anger. Sometimes our words can be easily dismissed if they are delivered harshly.

    I wouldn't know how to advise you on what a possible future would look like with a disability like this. Perhaps she gets the hang of eating pretty soon and it all works out. That would be wonderful! If not, I think you and your son are wise to consider if assist feeding for the rest of her life is really something you (and her) are up to. I don't think I could do it.

    Either way, she is lucky to have you as her family. Fighting to do what's best for her. Poor, sweet noodle.

    If I breed next year, I will send you from my first clutch for free one of the babies. Sorry you are going through all of this. Just remind me when you see me posting eggs.

    Awww, that is so nice of you really. I am sure my son will get another one if doesn't turn out well for Mia.
    Better believe it will come from a breeder and not Petsmart !!!

    Lesson learned. In a way i'm glad he got her, she may have starved to death if someone didn't know what to look for and figured she'd eat when she was hungry. At least we will not let her suffer.
