This is the workst case of impaction I have ever seen! I work at a petshop and about half hour past close a man came up and knock on the windows. He showed my the leo in this tiny terrarium and said he found it sitting by the door and wondered if it was ours. I gasped and almost fell to tears when I saw this. Not only is he malnurished, he must have broken two feet and walked on them and they have healed very deformed. His tail is kinked several time from bad shed I assume. My guess is that he was deprived calcium and ate all the blue sand in his tiny habitat to try and fill his malnurishment and maybe even hunger. When I re-examined the plastic terrarium, there was a hint of blue sand left along some of the edges. That is when I knew exactly what happend to all the sand. I am soaking him in warms baths and he seems be calm and sleeps in the warm water. I don't want this beautiful guy to die. He is livly, but I know he's in a lot of pain. He has clear eyes and has energy to walk around. Please let me know if there is anything I can further I can do for him. I don't have the money to get him surgury and I hate myself for that, please if anyone is willing to help me, please contact me me ASAP!!!! My email is iced_earth_goddess@hotmail.com. Or just reply to this post and I will email you back.

Here are some pictures, I warn... they are not for the weak, this is MAJORLY heartbreaking...
