Reptile Refuge

Pittsburgh PA

Description

Do you have a reptile or amphibian you can no longer care for? Kids lost interest, too aggressive, gotten too big, or just don’t want it? We can take them in and give them a lifelong home judgment free. I have worked in animal care for nearly 2 decades and reptiles have always been our passion. Aggressive and geriatric herps have been a specialty, but any age or temperament is welcome. At this time caging is limited here, so surrendering with an enclosure is very helpful and also helps the animal adjust better too. Please give us a few days notice if an enclosure can’t be provided so that we have time to set a proper home up for your animal. We are NOT a shelter, more of a reptile retirement home, and very rarely will we adopt out unless we know a specialist for a specific animal that will meet its needs better than we can. Crocodilians for example. When contacting us please include your name, what type of animal you are wanting to surrender, age if known, any known issues, and pics are always appreciated. Again there will be no judgment, we understand sometimes people don’t know about the proper care these animals need and the issues that can result from improper care. We just want to provide a safe, loving place for these animals to get the proper care, diet, habitat, and vet care they need.
