Sorry, couldn't track down a phone number...there were a few Gords with his last name at canada411.com and the business name didn't turn up anything.

Thank you SOOOO much!!!
I'm off to type the email!!

In the beginning of the email I got a phone call!!

It sounded fairly positive.

The lady explained some things to me, but thinks I should be able to get some form or licence to keep him, as I have had him a long time & was a kid when I got him... She also said that the program to not be allowed to keep animals like Axle is fairly new & is NOT well known at all, so I'm not the only person unaware of this, as there is so little to no info about this, & when people tell you your following hte laws, they are missleading me as they themselves have no idea about this.

She gave me 2 people to call that are in my county. However the supervisor she wants me to talk to wont be in until a little later today (but I can wait, as I'm determined to keep my baby) & the other person, is at lunch.

So this is looking more positive already!!

Are you still sending the email to Peterborough?

Couldn't hurt...you might need a temporary refuge at some point.

I've read a couple of this guy's postings. He and his wife have this rescue, and seem pretty down-to-earth.

Good luck!

my goodness.. this lady is awesome! Shes doing all the running around for me

she called again asking more details about his species as no one knows anything about him (except me :P). She has contacts at the toronto zoo & shes hoping the info she gets will be positive & might help me get the licence for him


EDIT:
She said by the sounds of things, hes not only domesticated, he responds mainly to me & we have a good understanding with each other... She was trying hard, real hard not to giggle at a lot of my comments, cause Axle & I are a very unique pair & how often do you hear about a snapping turtle sleeping on its momma's pillow!!

That sounds great!

But if it is really expensive - consider the Peterborough angle.

They didn't mention anything about a cost.. I'm hoping its free or cheap.. if its not, I just have to call dad. I HATE having to get dad to bale me out of things... but he told me yesterday, he wants to know about ALL my stresses & how he can help.. I told him I have a few, but I think I can handle them on my own.. he said if hes needed to let him know. He said he just wants to see me have a chance of a life.. once the mess is cleared, then I'm 100% on my own.

I'm still writting that email as a back up.. but will hold off until I see whats going on with the licence thing. Cause if I get accepted then YAY!!
