One of our iguanas, Littlebutt, died today.
He was one of our reptile rescues. A kid had been keeping him in a coffee can and the mother was livid that it bit him and she was threatening to set him loose in the pet store because they would not offer her a refund. My OH was standing there overhearing this and offered her what he had in his wallet at the time so she would stop her threats and he could bring him home.
We had him for awhile, made a big setup for him, and fed him only the best of food. Unfortunately, metabolic bone disease had already done enough damage to his body and he passed despite our efforts.
Rest in peace, little one. You will be missed.
