Default R.I.P the unknown herps.

I have been thinking about this since i joined this forum, and i want to send a memorial R.I.P out to all the herps i never knew the name of, who died in my care, the ones i recieved to late to save.
The terrapin who died due to his previous poor water giving him conjuntivitus who was practically starved to death despite food floating past his nose.
The chameleon who died an hour after i got her of dehydration or malnourishment i dont know which.
the beardie who died of a massive respiritory infection despite a trip to the vet.
The tarantula whos owner posted him to me and he didnt survive the trip.
And all the others i try not to remember because it upsets me.
they are unnamed, as to name something is to become attached, to form a bond and i cant do that doing what i do or id never have the strength to continue.
If any one wants to add any more unknowns to this feel free including other rescues or trade people.
Graham

its always heartbreaking when something you tried to save, passes over

makes you question oneselfs ability, so well done for continuing on, i bet there are more animals who owe their lifes to you than those who you couldnt save!

Sorry to hear about your losses, some people don't deserve to have pets.

I lost a baby bearded dragon today that never made it to hatch. I feel really bad about it but understand that these things happen and nothing i could have done to save it.

R.I.P to all
