Unhappy Leo died.... :'(

I am so sad...

I found my Sarabi dead...

Since I brought her home she never had much of an appetite, only a couple of meal or wax worms here and there. I had brought her to the vets twice and was treating her for parasites. Been 2 months and she never started eating on her own. I've been force feeding her for the past 6 weeks or so and had stopped her weight loss but apparently it wasn't enough....

This is the first pet that I lose... It really stinks

That leo probably got more love and affection from you then it would have from anyone else. Sometimes it's all they have before they go. Sorry to hear that it didn't make it, but glad to hear it was cared for so meticulously.

That's crappy. I was really sad when my first herp died. I have had a few die over time, and each one sucks but the first loss seems like it was the worst. Not sure why. I hope you feel better and help another little leo out like you did that one!

I'm so sorry for your loss. And most of us know how you feel. But whatever you do don't give up on keeping reptiles. Sometimes you try your hardest and thats the best you can do. And at least he went out knowing someone cared and loved him. And i'm sure everyone here is sorry for your loss.

Hugs,

Jamie

Aww...I am very very sorry!! The same thing happened with my first reptile which was a rescue blizzard lizard. lots of vet checks, force feeding, one or two worms here and there, lived for two months, and died so I know EXACTLY how you feel I am very sorry but at least you tried..just remember that! I am sure that that Sarabi couldn't of found a better home. I am very sorry
