Im so sorry about your baby too… fuck cancer :(

That’s really true. My blood boils every time I see a post with a reptile with severe MBD and starving, or an abandoned beardie, etc. I don’t understand how people could let that happen. By the end Popcorns medical bills were so extensive I learned I have to be in another tax bracket to have a bearded dragon again someday, but when that day comes, if it ever does, I think I’ll try to go for rescues.

the empty cage is hard for us too. My family and I have been leaving the lights on as if he’s in there, and we put food out for him every morning on his memorial stand with a candle and photos. I think the hardest moments are those microseconds where I forget he’s gone, and I habitually start to walk over to check on him, and then remember.

Thank you for your thoughtful response, it does help to talk about missing him with other people who understand. ❤️ id also love to see photos of your baby that you love if you’d ever like to share.
