Re: Stolen Boa, need help.

I was linked to this from arachnoboards.com and I'm crying so hard. Like snot pouring out of my nose crying. I'm so sorry Rick. I'm so ashamed to be the same species as those monsters that did this to that beautiful snake.

Re: Stolen Boa, need help.

*HUGS* Awww, Rick,
Sorry to be coming into this so late in the game, but I wanted to add my heartfelt sympathies for your loss of Aurora.
Not that I can offer much, being on the west coast, but know that my prayers go out to you during this time of mourning.
RuLyn

I just saw this thread. I'm so sorry. I almost threw up when I saw that pic, I can't imagine... I'm so sorry.

Re: Stolen Boa, need help.

Shakespear (you know what I mean) I've been away only got in here now. This is terrible. I hope she comes back as a cytotoxic snake and gets them on the unmenstionables (and they survive).

Really sorry. Have a hug from a far.

Re: Stolen Boa, need help.

Thank You to everyone for showing such great support.

Just to update you, Absolutely nothing has come of the police investigation, or the reward money that's been offered.

This is just totally depressing. I figured we would have gotten somewhere with the reward offer. To think that someone knows and ain't talking, or is intimidated into silence, just disturbs the heck out of me.

I'll give it a couple more weeks with the reward bumped up to a grand, then I'll just start sending people back the money they pitched in to help get the reward higher. I'm really starting to feel like I am just spinning my wheels here, and getting absolutely nowhere.

The silence is not very encouraging at all.


Thanks again for the support.
Rick

Re: Stolen Boa, need help.

Don't lose hope. Sometimes it takes a long time to find the culprit.

Re: Stolen Boa, need help.

Unfortunately because it was "just a snake" there probably won't be any sympathy for anyone (outside of the reptile community) to find the person responsible for this horrifying tragedy. Only people who have snakes as pets can truly understand what they mean to us.

We offer condolences to you and your family.

Re: Stolen Boa, need help.

Just tell me to be quite if you have done this but have you tried putting world out at the local schools. If it was kids they are bound to brag to someone maybe the teacher have hear something.

Re: Stolen Boa, need help.

Did you ever report it to the new agencies? Getting the world out to a lot of people that way might help, plus bring it to the attention to some animal rights people in your area.
