Do you have photoshop? If you email me, I can tell you how to reduce the file size with it.

Sean- your two that passed? what type of substrate were you using? if it was sand make sure it doesn't contain silicant-- this can cause uro's to become impacted most dogcat vets wouldn't know the diff. good luck with this one!

How great for you! I'm sure you will be pleased with anything ordered from Doug, you know the quality of the animal before it even comes. Best of luck. I am posting a picture of my ornate, but the picture really does not do him justice, I will try to get better pics soon. Enjoy!
