Shortly after we got her, Stephen read that it was illegal to keep native species as pets. This, to us, was a stupid law...seeing as how rabbits, turtles, tadpoles and praying mantises all make great pets, but we decided we better obey it, so our kids don't disobey our "stupid" rules.
There was much weeping when we dropped her off at the zoo. We felt terrible about making the kids so sad right after they lost Kizzy....
Soooooo.....
we got this (Laurel).....
and brought her home to be friends with this (Lavender)....
Then Lavender got VERY sick and we had to hand feed her a nutrient laden laxative with no food or water, every hour for 2 days....and now she's all better....
So, now we have this.....
and we're hoping things will stay this way for awhile ;)
