    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....

So I want to take a gap year and I have no idea what to do about my pets!! I have a fish (beta which is pretty simple not too worried about him) and a ball python who is still young not full grown yet and i want to go travel but what do i do about her?? :hair_on_fire:
I don't really trust my family much to take care of her and keep her humidity up i don't even trust my own mom to take care of my fish! simplest pet ever! she didn't feed him while i was gone once because of course she is crazy and wanted him to "be hungry for when i came back" :/ it was a weekend thank god not longer.
so any suggestions? I WILL NEVER GIVE HER AWAY don't even think of commenting that
 
Some pet stores will board animals, but I would stay away from the chain stores (PetCo, PetSmart). Try to find an independent, "Mom & Pop" store. A nice shop near me always has a lot of extra animals around Christmas, as they board fish, rabbits, and reptiles for their customers.

Another option is a pet-sitting service, such as Rover.com. Normally, the sitter will come to your house, but some will take the animals into their homes.

I don't know about fees for long-term boarding, and it may not be something you are able to do. If you were near me, I would happily watch them for you, no charge!
