Not everyone who sells their pets are irresponsible, heartless jerks. Sometimes through no fault of your own you fall on hard times, or have a new infant addition, or have to move somewhere that doesn't allow pets. If you wanna get technical pretty much everyone on this sight got their pets from someone who didn't want them. Breeders don't breed animals because they want the company, they do it because it's a business. Are they bad people because they sell their animals instead of keeping all of them?
And just in case it wasn't a negative sort of comment.. I got it because I wanted a pet.
Thanks though really... and if I'm coming off as a jerk then sorry but I just dont need people going off topic on a sales post.
I want a kid, can I go to an orphanage and later decide that I no longer want to keep it, and get rid of it... maybe one of my friends would like one?
First off to equate a pet with a child is a little extreme. I'm sure if there is a child about to get hit by a car vs your pet... I would hope you save the kid over your pet.
Maybe the fact that I lost my job and have to move into a smaller apartment may not have anything to do with it. Or maybe its because I'm being shipped off to Iraq. Or maybe its my sons pet and he just died in a car accident. Or maybe its because my daughter wants to get a cat and threw a 3 hour hissy fit and tried to kill the tegu to get me to do it.
In other words you have no clue why I want or have to sell the tegu.
Would you rather have me let him loose at the local park?
I'm being more than responsible for trying to sell him to someone who won't have my restrictions and maybe get some money back before deciding to drop him off at the local herp store.
