Help Me Please!!!

[Pres.Nixon]

My new leo which I got three days ago is in dire need of help She dosnt even respnd to touch earlier she was on her hamock and just slid right down the thing not even trying to stop I feel terible for the animal I have bought a syringe feeding kit for insectivours and Im really thinking I need to use it PLEASE CONSULT!!!

[snakemann87]

first what are the temperatures like? and the humidity. As for the feeding leo-land is the only one that i know that may be able to help you there.

dude, get to a herp vet Asap! You can try feeding it bug guts, but your leo sounds quite sick and may need meds. Once again, get to the vet!

[Pres.Nixon]

Ok thnx Im gonna go get my dad to take me

[Pres.Nixon]

Well my parents wont take me and shes not even moving I had to feed her with a syringe I gave her the stuff it came with and two crickets which I feel terible for doing thats must have been terible for them I can only pray that she will survive

[Pres.Nixon]

Its too late for the leo Im really depresed I feel like crap but I have a new albino adult so ill just hope this never happens to me again but I think what happend was the others at the store were bullying it and it just never got water and food so that led to inevitable death I guesse this happens to every herp keeper

[Alicewave]

Did you get the albino from Petco also? (Sorry to hear you lost her) From the other thread it sounds like Crypto with the spot on her belly.

[Pres.Nixon]

Yeah they gave it to me free when I called them up to bitch at there poor care for there reptiles they said theyd give me a "replacement"

[Mike177]

hey axel sory about spazes death. when i as over she was looking ok. but i guess she wasent lucky enouph to survive. but remember her. by the way what did petco do with the body? if they where going to thow it away we should give it a "proper bereal" this weekend ill see you at school tomaro.

[Alicewave]

I just hope your new Albino isn't also infected with crypto.

[Pres.Nixon]

it isnt

Just out of curiosity, if your parents refuse to get vet care for your animals, what if something else happens? Its not fair to let an animal die or be sick when a simple solution is located at a vets office. You know what I am saying? I am not trying to get down on you, but what if (heaven forbid!) something starts showing up with your other leo? Will it just have to "get better" or suffer and die?

Please keep in mnd I am not trying to be rude or come down on you, but animal health and welfare is very important to me and no animal should have to suffer without a vets care because it was brought into a home that cannot promise that care.

[Alicewave]

I agree with Marisa. YOu should always expect to spend more on vet bills than on the actual animal. also, how do you know the albino is not infected? If it was housed in the same enclosure as the infected one, it very likely is. Hate to say it.

[Mike177]

No,
being one of axels good freinds i know he takes good care of his lepords. but his family is very bussy most of the time and cant just get up and go to the vet on 3 seconds notice. but if he did take it to the vet the nexed day it still would of been dead. shure it would of been nice to take the poor thing to the vet. but by the time they got there it would have been dead anyway ( BTW i am not justifying not takeing an anamal to the vet just because you "think" it is going to die anyway)

[Pres.Nixon]

And please dont think I am cruel to animals or any of my family memebrs Ive been a vegetaian all my life for these reasons and my dad was one for like 9 years but neways thanks for the concern

Oh and they gave me the adult from a difernet encloser and were not even sure it was dehydration and at one point my dad even spent 65 dollars on a leo that wasnt even mine
