I'll start watching them when I'm closer to being ready and might let them know I'd be interested in one if one becomes available, although considering the cage I'm looking at has lead times of at least 13 weeks right now I've got plenty of time to research and look around.
That's a really good idea to let the rescues know your interest- in fact, I'd do it well-ahead of time, you never know when something may turn up. Meanwhile, you can get your cage ready also.

I personally love the idea of "rescuing" pets in need too, & you're really fortunate to have several reptile rescues nearby.
