I have such a soft spot for reptiles that need good homes. I wish I could save them all, and sometimes I try. We have rescued so many snakes off of Craigslist (I swear the last few were ALL under fed, and our poor lil new boa has a BAD case of mites ).

I don't know how people get animals, and know nothing about them. I could understand a TV or a video game impulse buy, but a living, breathing creature? Ugh.
