Not only would I never talk to them again. But I'd still report them. I hope more pics were taken bc that's still evidence. To have something as treatable as that was at first and even in the end and to still do nothing is seriously disturbed. I'm sorry you had to watch that. If a person could neglect an animal like that just imagine how they treat their friends and loved ones.

I'm not sure I have much faith in our herpetology association. I told them about the case. Gave them all the information. Because I was at a standstill. Even Animal wouldn't take any action. And because of this ... a beautiful snake died... Yea I am definitely not going to talk to the guy who owned the snake. And as for my friend. I have nothing to say to either of them. It was neglect. Period..Dot. End of it. To sit there while an animal suffers is just cruel. And let me ask how much was it to put the animal down? b/c for prob $30 they could have gotten the antibiotics. Totally bull. They watched her die and did nothing about it. :mad:

this is so sad what a waste of a beautyful life they make me sick . i knew the snake had septicemia . when i rescued my snake his was bad and he pulled trow but not as bad as this snake. y dint they listen to you 2 weeks ago the snake mite of had a chance sick people . whats happend is so sad but atleast the snakes not suffering rip poor little darling and you did your best .:snake:
