um, ya, you are right that I overlooked where she lives, however ARAV is a worldwide organization with MANY European members. I did a quick search for Wales, and didn't come up with any, but since I don't exactly know where Wales is, it could be my fault. Barring that, contacting some British vets (that's close isn't it?) and seeing if they have any contacts that are closer.

To make this even more complete, Wales undoubteably has a veterinary association which will be a good source for more leads if not more. Additionally, the British Small Animal Veterinary Association has a good chapter devoted to reptiles and might be another to contact.

Also googling Wales Reptile Vet turned up some leads, many from Herp Vet Connection which is a client based referal list.

ps, after proofing my post it sounds like an "in your face" kind of response. It ain't, I'm just trying to be helpfull but don't know how to reword it more appropriately.
