• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Working with John was a very positive experience. Communication was maintained above and beyond the normal call of duty. He is very knowledgeable about animals and happy to answer questions as well. Without getting into any specifics, on both ends of shipping, Delta was delayed in transit- for both of us, from the booked flights that were set.

:shrug01:

Fortunately, animals on both ends were healthy, packed well and we stayed on top of Delta while they were sorting out details. Everything worked out great for myself and John was pleased as well. Sometimes transit can be stress full to shippers, consignees and especially animals.

:iagree:

But.... if the animals are healthy and people communicate well and with patience, it usually all turns out well. It can be scary if a package gets lost or something goes wrong in transit. Anyhow, John is VERY level-headed and I would not hesitate to work with him again. His zoological background certainly is a huge bonus when dealing with.

:yesnod:

Thanks John!
