My new rescue!!!

[MrJorgensen]

So, this little guy has quite the story behind him.

He's an 8 year old Sulcata that was originally found in a storage locker a few years ago when it was purchased at auction. He must have been in there for some time, and was nearly dead when he was found. Someone took him to a veterinarian who nursed him back to health and kept him for a little while before they adopted him out.

I'm adopting him from the people who adopted him from the vet. They posted an ad that they were moving and could no longer care for him. He's got some great personality and am happy to have my 2nd "son" at home now.

A storage locker! Just shows how sick some people really are.

Poor thing! I bet he is happy to have a wonderful new home! WTG!

 

[wellington]

Glad he is loved and in your home. So sick what humans can do. Not a proud member of the human race.

 

[blafiriravt]

Good to hear he found a good home!

Congrats on the adoption!

Great job.. He is awesome. So what is his name?

They had named him "Little Peanut" but I kinda like "Oscar" as a name. Nothing has been officially decided.

 

[LuckysGirl007]

Maybe name him " Tuffy". Cause he had to be tough to survive that!

 

[Momof4]

What a story! I love the name Oscar and he is cute!
