"This is exactly why the animal in this case and those similar should be returned to the dealer/breeder. "
Lymorg came from a local pet store in New Orleans... what do you think they would have done? I was his last hope. where i had to take him to get tests done was operating out of another...
oh, and what i meant by sending it to its death is if it is sick , it would die on the way... not at the breeders... just that it would die alone at the post office. :(
having a sick guy is hard...
Lymorg was sick (respiratory infection) when i got him from the pet store but whenever something made him feel bad, he went to the doctors to get it fixed. i do not believe he has no emotions, even wild animals can feel things. i also own a pit bull, next someone...
whoa...
not to be rude but you seriously see these great little guys as "product"??? wouldnt sending them back be a death sentence for the poor sick little guy? it seems cruel. if a couple were to adopt a new baby and it had cancer but they didnt know until they had it for a while, you would...
so sorry...
thats so sad, i'm so sorry for your loss... the silver lining to it all is that he held on until someone was there for him. that is important, he knew somone loves him.
poor guy passed away wednesday after spending the past week and a half at the hospital. he was very sick and we did all we could but he will be missed!
adminstering orally...
as far as drowning your cham from meds or force fed water/ food... i was told do not put your little guy right back in his cage but hold him up for about 30 seconds or so to make sure they swallow adn do not spit up their meds or choke on them. lymorg would relax after...
even the toughest fighters loose sometimes :(
the hospital called me yesterday to give me the worst of the worst news. he will be missed a whole lot by many people and at least he was afforded every oppourtuntiy possible in his short life, how many other chameleons can say they went to the...
still in intensive care... holding on...
when i called the hospital, thye said he is still stable but severly anemic. there is not enough blood in his body to do diagnostic tests...
as far as his toe infection, the nail is still short from being broken but other than that looks normal now. his...
diagnosis bleak
well, they called me from intensive care and said he's sicker than i thought, they are giving him a 10% chance... i dont know what i would do without my big man...
lymorg isnt a morph.... nor would i say he's a typical cham either! :) but yes, he is a regular jackson's. he's got an awesome temperment and a great personality... he's in the hospital right now though :( he's very sick adn needs to get better soon! he has to spend the night tonight so they...
well, lymorg spent the whole day at the doctors again today but today the doc called to tell me that he thought lymorg should go to the equivalent of what is the intensive care/ emergency room here. he started to take a turn for the worse so we rushed him there... he's being hospitalized...
some relief in sight!
well, the big guy can hold off on getting a job for now! luckily i grossly overestimated the vet bill, still not cheap but looks like lymorg can hold off on flipping those cricket burgers! :) he is still pretty lethargic but he gets more energy bursts now. he is back at...
hand feeding
i have always hand fed lymorg until lately... (he thinks he's too big for it now i guess... mr. hot shot!) now all he will take is worms hand fed but luckily this has made him a very nicely tempered guy. he is currently still a bit under the weather so he has to be given eyedrops...
