Green Iguana - rehome needed

Chicago IL

Description

Hi everyone, I have a green iguana that i took in as a favor to a friend a couple years back when it was just a baby. i knew what i was getting myself into as far as size and upkeep as i have been a reptile enthusiast all my life. fast forward to now, he is roughly a little over 3 feet long. His name is Bebop. I believe he is a male at least. For the most part I don’t handle him, however he has never given me a reason not to. He’s always calm when im in his enclosure cleaning, bringing food, water, etc. This is mainly due to the fact that we have cats that he doesn’t tolerate, and as he ages, the more stress they cause eachother. When he was little there were no issues. This brings me to the reason for rehoming. He is very stressed out by one of our cats in particular, and they are constantly having confrontations at the glass. In order to keep everyone happy and healthy in the house, we think it would be best to find a better home more suitable for the Iguana, as much as it saddens me to see him go. If I had the space to devote a entire separate room for him so he could be 100% isolated from the other animals, I would, but unfortunately we do not have an alternate place to keep him. Ideally, I’d like to find someone who has experience with iguanas and has the set up ready to go, as i plan to keep the current enclosure that i made for him. However, if there is a party thats very interested and needs the accessories and inclosure, we can work out some pricing, as it is a custom built wood enclosure with two levels - the top being screened and the bottom being glass.
