my question...why is that store being allowed to reopen even with new owners when the living conditions of the animals is not changing?
pet stores have to go through regular inspections to make sure they're up to par with their caging & care of the animals so unless the inspector is both blind & stupid theres no way a store set up like that could pass such an inspection...or so one would think....
poor critters.
I did save one, an adult female ball. She's so so much better now. And put ob close to 200 grams since I rescued her. The saddest part is... the shop is going to most likely close.soon.. and ifnthey do I.may be having animals come to me... But I just can't afford the vet bills.. taking.one to the vet is hard enough, and now another is starting to get A RI... couldn't be a worst time.. I plan on getting more pictures, but I'm going through so many options its unbearable, the albino Burmese they have is mean as a Tasmania Devil, why.. it's cage is to small, it has mites, an RI is constipated and it's temperatures are barely high enough for it to live, and to make it worse it's horribly mal nourished. 1 small mouse a week for a 3,000+ gram Burmese and they expect it to be nice... and plan on killing it.


It goes on and on and it break my heart. My fiancée wants me to buy the beardies they have but the truth is... we have No room.. if any people in IL have room, there may be reptiles going to a shelter soon. How soon? Idk.. but I'm hoping there home is better then the hole they live in now...
