    The Vomitore Offer

    Lately I've been noticing a lot of rescues/adoptions. It breaks my heart to see these poor animals in such terrible shape. So, I want to help out. Each month, if there's a rescue/adoption where an animal is in need of medical care ect, I will offer to send one person a month, 75.00 either Paypal or m/o. Whatever you feel most comfortable with. However, I want people who have experience with animals, and have knowledge of recouping an animal to rescue/adopt. We are here to help each other in our daily adventures with our critters so if you feel that you can care for such an animal, DONT hesitate to ask for help and tips. I just don't want someone to adopt a pet, who cannot meet the pets needs when it comes to general care and basically put the creature in the same spot they were rescued from.

    Do I want to be paid back? Either way doesn't matter to me. I just want to have some creatures, such as snakes to have a chance at a happy and healthy life. They already get enough slack for doing just as nature intended them to do. No need for them to be mistreated this way.

    How do I want the money spent? I only want it spent on the creature that is being saved. Vet, food, housing ect are fine. Don't spend it on buying something that doesnt benefit the creature.

    Who's eligable? If you are brand new member, I would be unsure of helping the person out. Only do to it's still my money, and if it's for someone who has only been on the site for 2 weeks I would feel unsure of sending them money.

    Other then that I think I covered all the bases. I'm only doing this for the love of the animals and the hopeful future of them having a good life.

    Re: The Vomitore Offer

    Hey wanna put a small investment to my rescue? I rescue all reptiles from beardies to nile monitors. I guarentee they all eat better than i do. The homes i rehome to get a weekly visit from my for a year and then i will go back every 6 months.


    I could use help in getting food for them.

    Here is my wekly output for them.

    INsect eating lizards:

    8 tubs each cricketes, mealworms, grubs, and locusts. 9 dollars a tub
    3 jars each of vit and calcium powder, 8 dollars a piece.

    Meat eating lizards:
    30 pounds of butcher off cut Cubed half and half minced. 40 dollars Crushed bone included for calcium and I add vit powder to that.

    Veg n fruit Lizards:

    10 pounds carrots, greenbeans, grapes, peas in the pod, apples, banannas, turnip with greens, cost 40 dollars

    Snakes and other rodent eaters:
    150 mice in various sizes, 30 dollars
    75 rats in various sizes, 20 dollars
    9 rabbits 10 dollars
    2 lambs ( donated from the local farmer)

    Vet supplies for the month for all my scalie rescues, 250

    I generally run in the red by a third. around 150 a month short. I make it up any way i can and seem to keep things going.

    If this is the worthy rescue cause you are lookinf ofr then i will more than welcome your help. I will even post your name on the wall as a contributer.

    And I do follow up on all rehomings to make absolute sure they are cared for properly.

    PM me if this interests you.

    Mike I think that's a lovely offer and very caring of you to want to help out some of our members that do a lot of rescues. I might suggest instead of always being straight up cash you could offer to buy a small frozen feeder order (or place money on their account with their preferred feeder supplier) or a gift certificate from a supplier either online or local to the them for such things as bedding, etc. Even a donation to their vet to be placed as a credit on their account could easily be done. Just some ideas......
