I'm glad someone else finally agress with me. & they wonder why I'm always sick..
Yeah I agree 100%. The only time I've ever seen anything like that was the time I went to Colorado and I had to leave my iguana with a guy I knew and "trusted" to take care of her - he was into iguana rehab.

Anyway when I went to drop her off things were a bit messy but they seemed O.K.

When I went to pick her UP though - it was quite different. I had loaned him her cage for the 3 months I was off on training, the same cage she had lived in for about 3 years, and it had never once been as dirty as I saw it when I came back - he let his other iguanas free-roam and they had climbed all over that cage, shredded the side panelling to ribbons, crapped all over it...

There was iguana poo caked on the heat vents, and poor Caicos was sitting in the windowsill, very cold to the touch. He had also destroyed all the years of potty training I had instilled in Caicos - I'd had her trained to go to the bathroom in a kitty litter pan - and he just wiped that out of her head in 3 short months. I had to start from square one. She's back to her normal self now though.

I never left her with him again, and we stopped talking.

I wound up having to dismantle her beautiful cage - and get her a smaller one from a site online. Only now am I finally preparing to build her a new cage ... it's going to be 6 feet tall, 5 feet wide, and 3 feet deep.
