Help with Cass urgent

[Bradyloach]

Hello! My mom just kicked me out to my dads and he lives 2 hours away' I don't know how am I gonna move Cass my savannah monitor! I'm freaking out like mad. I just don't know what to do :( please help

[Skumbo]

Do you have any friends with a large vehicle? 2 hours isnt that far of a drive to borrow a friends van or something and fill their tank as a thanks, i'd help you out but i think im a bit farther from your dads than you are xD

you could also rent a van for the day, which for a 2 hour trip (4 total) would be upwards of $200 including gas (hence borrowing someones car or something)

[Bradyloach]

I have a truck. I just don't want to put that much stres on him

time to invest in a bed cover? :no:

Thats why vans make more sense than trucks in certain applications.. but vans look silly! xD

I hope you can sort it out though, im assuming your mom is like mine and if she ever kicked me out (i dont live there but still if she did) all reason would go out the window so no "i need to find a safe way to move my pet" argument

[Bradyloach]

I have a bed cover!

Where in Canada are you?

[jarich]

You can move the enclosure in the back and keep him in the cab with you. Just make sure to minimize the stress by keeping him warm, and covered in whatever container you take him in. He is small so you could put a bunch of his dirt in a sturdy box, which will keep the humidity up for the short drive. Make sure the box is escape proof, but still has some air transfer. It will be dark in there and confined so he should feel safe, and for a couple hours he will be fine with the humidity, just make sure to keep the heat up to about 80 in the cab of the truck.

[millertime89]

get a non-see through plastic tub from walmart or wherever that is just big enough for some dirt and him and some straps of some sort to secure the lid. Drill some holes so he can breath, and like Jarich said, keep him in the cab with you while the enclosure rides in back.

[BarelyBreathing]

Keep your head about you. You'll want to empty the substrate into buckets if you can't lift the enclosure with it inside. He will be fine for the move. Just drive safely and have a plan.

[Bradyloach]

Okay so I'm gonna stay here for a month or so, then move somewere around here on my own In an appartment! With little Cass. Thanks guys!

[infernalis]

What the heck happened??

[Bradyloach]

My mom flipped out on me, it's a long story! She borrowed 1000 dollars from me to go on a trip and they say I do nothing for them. And I called her a liar today and it triggered something! I'm getting an appartment a couple weeks.. But I wanted to make sure I could stay for a couple more weeks... To benefit castiel

[infernalis]

I hope everything works out for you, I really do.

[BarelyBreathing]

Good luck in your endeavors.

[Bradyloach]

Yah! Everyone said you can come live with me just get rid of your lizard. I flipped. He's my little son or daughter and I love him :) or her haha it will work out I'll keep you posted

[infernalis]

Make sure that any potential landlords are going to be cool about Cass.

[Bradyloach]

Yah I will. And I won't tell them about my roach colony that's for sure!

[infernalis]

If you were not over the border, I would gladly be your landlord.

[Terranaut]

Over the boarder where. He might be in BC.


Hey where do you live? If its not far I have a van.

[Bradyloach]

I'm in sudbury ontario! Way to far :(

[Terranaut]

Yeah 5 hrs is a bit far

[Swany]

Fingers crossed it all goes well for you man ;-)

[Bradyloach]

Oh it will! Just don't want to put little Cass through that much stress!

[CK SandBoas]

I really hope everything works out for you, and for your beloved Sav :)

[Norm66]

Good luck man.

[SpOoKy]

Sorry to hear this. I hope you are able to work things out, good luck.
If worse comes to worse I am only about 4 hours from you. Maybe I could help you out one way or another.

[Bradyloach]

:) if I need help you guys would be the first :) everything's working out my mom is being way more easier. Im going to stay for a month or 2. I wanna build Cass a cage I can take apart and set it up again! Like a 8x4 enclosure!

[infernalis]

Once you are here, you are family.. I think you see that now.

These people bought me another monitor when Chomper died.

Just wish those eggs would hatch.

[Bradyloach]

Woah! I can see that I love this forum :):)

[infernalis]

We watch each others backs around here.

[Bradyloach]

That's good :) exactly what I needed

[Skumbo]

I should move to New York..

I'm a boston boy though, don't know if thats allowed :rolleyes:

[millertime89]

I would choose Boston over NY any day.

'twas a joke, look at my avatar! I'll stay in NH, I dont know if i could go back to paying sales tax on every day things..

I went down to MA to visit the family over christmas and i stopped at a store to grab an energy drink (listed at $1.99) i handed the lady two $1 bills and she gave me a weird look and i was like "what? it's $2!"

I didn't have any other cash on me (left wallet in the car) so i just said screw it and left.

[infernalis]

Contrary to what some people may believe, New York is a big state, that cesspool of a city is very very far away from where I live, let's just say if the rotten apple got nuked, I wouldn't even need a fallout shelter.

I live in the red area.

[youngster]

I just came back from Boston, visited my brother and went to the aquarium :)
Not to sidetrack the thread though.

[alessia55]

wow Brady that's awful! I'm glad you're figuring things out. Keep your chin up and you'll figure things out for Castiel. I'd start calling apartment complexes asap to see which will allow you to bring Cass... Because of the size and the amount of dirt in the enclosure, I'm assuming you'd want a ground floor apartment? Best of luck and keep us posted please!

[Bradyloach]

Yah! I have to look and look hard! Thanks guys!

Oh most definitely, New york state is very pretty in some places, new york city on the other hand....


my girlfriend is from matamoras, PA (that little corner of PA that touches NJ and NY) and so I've traveled through NY a lot before we moved in together

[beardeds4life]

i know this is a stupid question but do most apartments allow reptiles? Im thinking it would be a lot harder to find one that would allow a sav versus a leopard gecko. Does allowing reptiles make the rent go up?

[infernalis]

Some apartments will allow reptiles with no extra money, some forbid them.

[BarelyBreathing]

I've seen apartments go one of two ways: Either they have a ban on all exotics (all reptiles, hamsters, girbils, birds, etc), or they allow caged animals with no fee.

[millertime89]

my apartment says "no caged animals" I clarified it with the question "anything that could be kept in an aquarium is ok, right?" and the answer was yes. So in my defense, snakes can be kept in an aquarium so they're ok. The did specify no rodents however.

Do rodents in the freezer count?:yes:

I don't think so. Actually I am pretty sure live rodents can't count so I don't see how a frozen one would be able to count.

[KORBIN5895]

Yah I will. And I won't tell them about my roach colony that's for sure!

Careful with the roaches. We just had a member get busted by his landlord with roaches. He had to give up his sav. There is a thread somewhere.
