I`m just still so angry at the state of this creature its untrue, but i decided to take him on, therefore i will do anything i have to to get him well, or end his suffering.

I have bathed him this eve in a solution of Critical Care and Reptiboost, and he has had a drink of it, so may keep his strength up until tomorrow. He seems a bit more perky this eve, and has pooped so at least i know the food he`s taken is being digested, so hopefully his digestive tract is relatively intact. He`s taking a few soft crix and some greens, i`m chopping the greens as i would with a hatchling and gently boiling it for a minute to soften...yes i know boiling reduces nutritional values, but better something than nothing eh?

IM really pleased you took redgex advice and are going to the vets..

definately not one where you cant i dont think... long term it wouldnt be wise to HANG OFF as such

i really hope he makes it,... sometimes with the best will in the world our animals NEED a vets tests and opinion..

Please keep us all updated

I pray he makes it and of course we know you wil keep him in a safe happy home..

IM glad he made it to you otherwise he looks like he may not have made it at all FULL STOP .. something that would have been truly sad


Good luck little guy...

Woah, just read this thread from start to beginning. I wish you with the best of luck in the morning, and I will be on ASAP to check. All the best, love you Rupert (Even though I don't know him, all the best!) I'm sure he'll be fine

Well good news folks, not only did Rupert make it through the night, he`s actually looking really bright this morning! Looks like the past few days of bathing and feeding have finally got into his system and perked him up a bit. I`ll be phoning the vet for advice shortly, but i`m hoping this turn around can only be good news. I just hope he now continues to improve.
