It is always great when hard work comes to completion. After spending a week at the local fair here, dealing with numerous drunks and anti snake folks, a very long conversation there has paid off.

A young man who at first glance looked questionable spent a great deal of time speaking with our volunteers. Being allergic to fur, his options for pets were limited. As someone who was raised to adopt an animal when possible, he never made the leap to getting a reptile pet. Thankfully we met him.

The amazing thing is that after all the years of education I have done, I have NEVER had someone get the cage I suggest, the supplies I suggest or anything. This kid did everything I told him and more! Last night he adopted his first snake, and as we all know it won't be his last snake.
