In Reply to: I am pissed off -poor Ig posted by Linda G on January 15, 2003 at 14:30:49:

The you refuse to take the GPs unless they give you the Ig too?? .....


:I got a tip that our local humane society has an Ig that
:is about the same size as Beanie (about 30") They have it
:in a cage where it cannot move. Of course, I know that our
:local humane society does not take Igs in as owner release
:so I called willing to help out if needed. I was told that
:the Ig was a stray (it has been below 20 degrees for the last
:week or so with night time at 0-3 degrees). The person I talked
:to said it was not healthy according to their staff vet because
:something was wrong with the jaw. Chances are the vet does
:not know anything about Iguanas! They said they were going to
:euthanize and that they would not release it to me. I even
:offered to come see what shape it was in because I felt chances
:were it probably had MBD due to the jaw problem. She told me
:the vet was the expert and that they would not give it up. I really am pissed because they are not even giving the poor thing
:a chance. What really broke the camel's back is that they call
:me to pick up Guinea Pigs when they have too many as I do rescue
:on a small scale so they know I am a responsible person.

:I am sorry for being pissy but I just had to vent!! I would
:like to kick the persons a-- that dumped that Ig and maybe
:the humane societies also for not giving it a chance!
