That day we went just to look at her, check on her as I couldnt get her story out of my mind. When we went to look at her she looked pitiful, had those eyes that went Straight to my heart. After asking the lady to get her out, she was wild , I reached over and took her talkedin whispers to her and she just stayed on my coat sleve (with a few scrates on my wrist). I put her back in her enclosure and she wouldnt let go, I had to pull her up toe by toe to get her off my coat, after all we had just came to look. Started talking to my husband and three kids, kids swore shed be an alligator when she grew up and eat there other pets LOL, hubby said NO we said wed just LOOK, wait till after we have our house, the kids looked around a bit, my eyes kept going back to her, so did my heart, then I got her out again, this time I put her back and almost cried, she just looked into my eyes with hers like please dont leave me here. A couple of teens talking about how she "fit" in there 10 gallon aquariam and I told them shes Mine im just waiting on the clerk. Had yet to get hubby to agree. After beging and pleading she came home, brought her home and at first she tried to bite me,tail whipped me, but after a day of holding her every ten minutes she was calmly setting there, first time I got bit was trying to put her leash on, after that she has never fought her leash. SHe is even taking to when im setting on the floor and shes leashed to comming up and setting on my lap :),
Dont know about crazy, and sorry its long but the way she came home with us has always touched my heart every time I remember it.
