This person contacted me and is looking for someone to adopt their iguana. Please do not email her about the conditions her iguana is living in, but if you know someone in CA that can help please hook them up with her. The email is copied below.
Thank you.
Rescue

<<We don�t ever take her out of the cage anymore,when you put your hand inside
the cage to feed her,she gets stand offish at first, but if you hold her
under her belly after some time she seems to calm down and relax and enjoys
having her neck,belly back & tail rubbed, and eats hardily.She is
approximately 4 feet from head to tail end.She needs a toenail clipping. She
is in a glass aquarium 4ftx18�x18�.It has a heating pad on the bottom of the
rt side and a 50 watt lamp on the screen over the top, please take the
cage,lights and whatever,it�s your�s. We need to find her a caring home.We
don�t spend any time with her anymore.I feel with some tender loving care and
a little time,she will make a great friend for someone who enjoys this type
of thing.Unfortunately Kramer was a gift for my daughter�s Birthday 6 yrs ago
and pet types of gifts are never a good choice. I�ve tried pet stores,but the
local ones here tell me they don�t like to take the green iguana because gang
members buy them and abuse them. Who knows if it�s the truth or just an
excuse. I have become fond of this iguana and would like to find a caring
home,but if you can�t help with something in the area,I�m afraid I may have
to have her put to the dogpound or have my vet put her to sleep. Really sad
and against everything we are about. So if you have any ideas,they would be
very much appreciated. We have to do this prior to July 11.Hope you can
help.Thanks for your time.Brenda at bbkoby@aol.com>>>
