Also, I would love to have a quarantine setup with a tub. He has to be in a tank. While I am stuck living here my mom will not allow the snakes to be in tubs. I am sorry I have to keep playing that card but no matter how many times I tell her to read these replies, she won't listen or read them. I am ridiculously limited in what I am allowed to do. I think they probably would be better off somewhere else unfortunately.
I wasn't saying "why not me". I was saying, "what if not me", because I try to keep them healthy and so far they are. This is my brother's snake, not mine. My snakes go to the vet when they need to and are healthy. I think I am trying to take on too much mentally and financially right now. I need to stop.
Despite not having money my snakes eat every week. They go to the vet. I'm just not allowed to put them in tubs.
I think I might just stop posting here. I know everyone must think I'm a crappy owner. No matter what I do for my babies, it's not enough.
Kids are easier to pay for. It's sad but there are state funded programs for kids. Name one state program that will help me get insurance for my pets so they can see a doctor. There aren't any.
It's not fair. Animals are a commitment not just a pet. I'm trying so hard to treat them as such and it makes me feel horrible that in all of your eyes I'm coming across as a selfish owner, a young brat who doesn't want to give up what she can't afford.
I'll do what I can and not what I can't for once....
I don't want to trash my rep though.
