Of corse I'd take her if anything serious like that happened but it would put a good dent in my savings. She's like my child.
I haven't taken her out of my "collection" on this site yet but my female cat, Nallah that had kittens back in April (I posted about it in the thread talking about how my snake escaped, and talked about how my cat gave birth at the same time that we were getting Calliope out from between my AC unit and my wall) anyways, yeah my cat Nallah ended up being poisoned (after the kittens were fully grown and weaned luckily, two of the four live with me as my pets now) and we had to put her down because it was causing a lot of organ failure and she was dying. She was one of my first pets. She was a cat though, so I wasn't the only one that took care of her, my mom fed her mostly and I was just responsible to the litter box. Calliope solely relies on me though (feeding, cleaning, monitoring husbandry, everything) because no one else knows how to take care of her, so losing her would probably hurt a lot more since she really is completely dependent on me. I couldn't get out of bed for three days when my cat died. I couldn't imagine what it would be like if Calliope got sick and I couldn't take care of her.
Anyways, sorry for going on that long spiel. I got caught up in the moment. I'm gonna hit the hay. I've got school in the morning.

Re: Dent in Eye
I love out in the country, lots of stray animals out here. They (neighbors) put out poison to kill any strays that come near their house so they can't go through their trash and make a mess of their yard and stuff. We don't know who does it exactly but someone does it and they're just stray animals so the law doesn't care. It's wrong to do that in my opinion though. My cat ran outside (have you ever tried to stop a cat from running past you? Especially when you don't even know she's there? It's impossible) and she got into something she shouldn't have, and came home and was sick already

It's a humidity issue, raising the humidity should address it. 60% minimum. And maybe it's just me but your tanks temps seem to be on the high side, especially the cool side. I keep mine 88 on the hot and 82 on the cool. And sometimes I feel is that is a degree or two, warmer then nessecary.
