    Thank you- that's what I'm leaning towards doing. I saw a post in a WLP group, of someone taking theirs to the vet for import-related stomatitis (GI issues) and the poor thing died after the vet exam. Then I read the resulting discussion about how easy it is to kill these guys with stress. That's what kind of set the caution in for me.

    Whatever gets the job done with the least negative impact
