terrible news

I am in total shock
my vet moved to Pennsylvania
what am I going to do?
this is just awful
I mean - I understand
the receptionist said "well, he likes to keep snakes and everything is illegal here"
I am just so upset
I tried calling Sean
the vet moved three fricking hours away
I don't know whether he's still going to work with the rescue
but if he is - at least I'm in the right neighborhood
Sean is opening an adoption center a couple of blocks from where I live

Re: terrible news

Oh wow-- that really must have been a shock and obviously a huge disapointment. I'm really sorry. It's such a long road, building a trusting relationship with your vet. And when you finally find one you love, it's rough to let them go!!

We could all go kidnap him and bring him back to you, kicking and screaming...

Re: terrible news

Sorry to hear that Rhea, my really good herp vet stopped practicing on exotics all together and moved away. Ummm...actually, by the way, you wouldn't happen to know where your vet went to?

I was thinking of you and the other PA folk, hoping that at least one of you might to benefit from my misfortune (kept bursting into tears yesterday - somewhat stable today)
I will find out where he went.
