Sorry, but I just had to vent on this. I listed my female tegu for sale on this website since it is full of mature and knowledgeable people knowing she would be going to a good home. A person contacted me from this site and the ball was then rolling. Everything was in place, I answered every question that was asked and was forward with the person. They even asked if they could have the lighting setup and I agreed to that so I knew she would have the proper lights. We agreed on him picking her up today between noon and 1. I got the tegu ready and put her in the pillow case bobby sent her to me in, undid all the lighting so it would be cooled off and ready to go. The tegu hated being in the pillow case and was stressed out, I put a towel over the plastic bin I set the pillow case down in to calm her down.
Now at 12:26pm I get an email, not even a phone call, that he talked it over with his PARENTS and they feel it is a bad move. My wife and I cancelled our plans for today so we could fit into his schedule better and be here for him to pick her up. Now I have put the tegu through un-needed stress and even upset my wife for canceling our plans for a child who contacted me. She gets upset easily seeing that she is pregnant. This bothers me, do not contact someone and lead them on. Do not agree to a time to meet and then email them halfway through the time saying your not coming. It sucks when you are having financial troubles and are counting on the money.
I have been out of work since dec 08' with a back injury, i'm a paramedic and have been unable to work since. I am in the process of doing everything I can to keep my wife from being stressed out during her pregnancy (our first). I am going to stop now since writing this makes me feel better, but in the end nothing with have changed../sigh
Sorry to vent, but it is frustrating. Hope no one else has to deal with this.
