I make no apologises for this post in the least.
Two things:
First off I take some extreme exception to the term 'witch' being used in this fashion. Pick something better to use. Or at least accurate.
Secondly if you do not want to hear opinions along a whole spectrum, don't ask. People here get a lot of questions from people who believe that iguanas are disposable pets, who feel no pain, and that it is not worth treating an iguana (vet bills can be costly) that they paid $9 for. I get a lot of people who dump their igs off here who screwed up the ig's care by either ignorance or obstinate stupidity, and now have a very sick animal on their hands. They decide that they are just going to dump the sick ig, and go straight to the pet shop to buy another $9 (obstensibly healthy) iguana.
The tone of your initial post set you in that category, and those types of sentiments push some buttons around here, and for very good reasons.
Moral advice, whether you want it or not, comes with pet ownership. How you treat animals reflects your general moral fibre. Pets are a serious, time-consuming commitment, and they need a lot of selfless dedication to keep them healthy and happy.... morals seem quite a pertinent topic here.
Flame away.

: What's with the attitude? I didn't know if vets could do anything for reptiles with paralysis so I was asking someone who knew (which ISN'T YOU) I'm in between jobs but I took my lizard to the vet anyway.
: Why don't you go get yourself a nice helping of shut-the-hell-up and keep your self-righteous save-the-whales attitue to yourself. I use this forum to ask for people's opinions on what to do with my lizards, not get moral advice. If I wanted that, I'd call Dr. Laura; who probably has more common sense than you by the way. So piss off!
