Thanks for the kind comment!
I agree, there are so many irresponsible owners out there. People impulse buy pets without doing proper research. Then the pet doesnt receive proper care, gets unhealthy, and of course, they are not going to get it medical care.
Or they get it for their child who then gets bored... and people decide it is disposable. Since it is a snake, they think they can just turn it loose and it will be fine.
It is extremely frustrating.
That is one thing I am teaching my kids, if you get a pet, you HAVE to research it first. You HAVE to buy all its supplies and make sure you are earning enough money to pay for its food. And you HAVE to be prepared to care for it for the length of its life.

Bless you. I wish more people would treat it this way.

My parents were adamant about this as well, and thank goodness they were, because it made us much more aware of everything involved.

And none of us grew up thinking that pets were disposable.

That is how I was raised as well, and I am forever grateful for it! ♥
