    Another CL Sad Story :(

    Browsing Craigslist...came across this

    I WISH I had the extra money for vet visits otherwise I'd take him in. I have money in savings for emergencies, God forbid something happens to one in my collection, but I can't justify knowingly taking in a sick snake

    Anyone near Fall River MA?

    Omg it's the same guy with the boas with mites?! I contacted him and mentioned I couldn't take them because I can't risk the rest of my collection, but told him about PAM and gave him a link and even gave him instructions for before and after the PAM arrives, pretty much saying it's not the end of the world. And he just responded saying "yeah I've tried everything but thanks" and that was it lol. I wish I could take his entire collection away from him

    Sounds like he likes having the snakes, but none of the responsibility that comes with them. If I lived closer I would definitely take that snake

    If I were closer I'd go talk to him and try to get everything he has. This person doesn't care about the animals they just want to own snakes cuz they want to be cool.
