911 Help

It depends I think those are two different chameleons, not positive though. But I have dealt with one veiled around this size and similar issues. She is currently rehomed and doing well, actually grew larger than I expected. But her care required me to be home all day. Which thankfully I worked at home during her time. She required syringe watering, syringe feeding and thankfully I had an auto mister as well to help with eye health. I also took her in three times for vet care, and once more for a check up before sending out. Took I think 4 months of 3 times a day feeding, and doing 4 syringes watering a day trying to get a total of .5 cc at least into her. It's not easy taking on cases like this and I definitely don't recommend it for people who work normal 9-5 jobs at all... it's one reason why my job works so wonderfully with my rescue work. The RI would be the hardest thing to work with in my opinion with the deficiency and everything else.


That right there is 'Doc Mader' style. Honestly while like you I have and can save critters with this amount of care the issue is a simple one....on this site a good portion of the keepers can't do what you and I and some others can. When you add in Petco as a factor, I just tend to be a little blunt about the chances.

I always hated seeing pet stores treat animals like they are just a number. Losing so many mom and pop stores hurt us in CA in that you just see the Petco business model thrive. I support independent stores and am lucky to say I really don't have to walk into a petco for anything unless my local store is out of flea spray.
