Thanks for the link, Rhea. I remember reading an article on the issue some time ago.

The local pet shop's owner just got awarded for running an ethical pet shop, donated 1/3 of the prize to the Finnish animal welfare associations. Not really surprising, they won't even sell a danio without making sure your aquarium is big enough and has the right water quality. Too bad they don't sell reptiles and related stuff anymore. They still have frozen mice, though.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHH H!!!!!!

Okay, that's better. I just needed to vent after a blood- pressure raising day! What better thread to do so on?

Let's have the details then, Anji..... Your 'AAARRGGHHH'... leaves us guessing!

Anji, hope the Gator photo didn't contribute

Well, it's probably not that dramatic, but little stresses add up!
My daughter is starting with what I suspect is bronchitis. My snake is puffy and oozing. I had to work a 10 hour day so I couldn't do anything for either one of them.
Now the clinics are closed, the vet is expensive, and I am exhausted.
The server for thamnophis.com was down for several hours over here, so I couldn't get on the forum for far too long.
And to top it off, some stupid people down the block thought it would be a wonderful idea to take in feral cats all winter, let them multiply, then release the whole lot of them this week when it warmed up. I arrived home to find 4 cats in my driveway, which all promptly took off into my backyard when I stepped out of the car. Spent 20 minutes chasing cats around screaming like a banshee. And the Humane Society is closed at this point too. So I really wish I had one of Stefan's guns.
Sorry, I am not really a cat-hater, but I don't need a yardful of flea-ridden, yowling , pooing-in-my-garden, wild animals, either.

I think I'm done now............are you sorry you asked yet, James?

Actually Anji, don't get me started on cats.... Our (relatively) new cat decided it would be fun to destroy the flowers in the vase on the sideboard. I explained through gestures and violence that he should leave them alone. I was awoken a while ago (it's nearly 3AM here) by a crashing noise, and came down stairs to find petals and water everywhere! My wife has forbidden me from killing him, so I stuffed his stupid face in the puddle he left on the floor, and threw him out of the house. If I hear him cry to come in....he's dead!

Funny, I've been wondering how your cat has been lately. Guess I don't need to ask now!

adamanteus · 04-25-2008, 08:55 PM

He has completely destroyed our (very expensive) leather dining chairs, he intimidates my snakes, he had the nerve to viciously attack my feet while I was sleeping... why do I love him so much?

anji1971 · 04-25-2008, 08:56 PM

Because he's cute. That's how they lure you in...........just like kids.
