Rocky, My iguana....

Rocky came into my life 4 yrs ago at the age of 4...he had been fed dog food, and all kinds on non friendly iguana food for the first 4 yrs of his life...about a month or so ago, he started acting funny , not eating, not basking,...so a vet visit confirmed my biggest fear...Kidney failure....he went downhill fast and I decided he had no quality of life, so I had him put down today....it was best for both of us...I am sad, but I will overcome....Thanks for reading....Lyn

Oh Lyn I am so sorry to hear this! My thoughts are with you and I send big hugs to you. Just know that you gave Rocky 4 years of wonderful life that he would not have otherwise had. You were his angel. Now he can tell the other angels about you!
Your dragon has now gotten his wings! Watch for him in the clouds.

I'm so sorry Lyn...
At least he knew what proper care was for 4 years. And he knew what real love was because of you and your family!
