I must of missed the post where you said you were going away.
I've been wondering where you were...and was getting a little worried.
Then yesterday, my daughter and I were at the local pet torture chamber...errr...pet shop, and they had a little leaf cham. They are selling him/her for $80.00...and that little critter made me think of you all over again.
The guy in the pet shop went on and on about how easy the leaf chams are to take care of, because they don't need heat, or UV lighting...and how you just stick them in a fish tank with some crickets, and that's all you have to do.
All the while he's rambling on with this crapola, I couldn't take my eyes off of the dead monitor in the lower fish tank. Nothing but skin and bones laying there with it's head at an odd angle, obviously dead. He said it came from the wholesaler with a URI, and that he's sending it back.
I mentioned to this guy about how a lot of these little chams don't make it...and he said..."yeah, it's that way with any exotic pet...once they get sick...you just let them go. There's nothing you can do for them once they start going downhill".
UGH...I HATE that store. Complaint after complaint has been filed against them...and they still stay in business.
Holy...sorry about that...I just got all caught up in a rant there for a second!
Anyway...I was posting just to say that I'm glad to see you back, and I'm sure with your dilegent loving care Luna will be back to her normal self in no time!
so sorry about the long winded tirade, that really has nothing to do with anything!
Welcome back...and say hello to Luna from Zoe and I.
