Sloppy Seconds, Inc. hasn't added a story.
Sloppy Seconds, Inc. is a non-profit animal sanctuary located in Hayward, California. We provide a permanent home for unwanted, abused, or neglected animals while promoting compassion and humane treatment for all animals.
Since we are a sanctuary with limited space, we only take in animals that have no where else to go. We are their last resort. These animals are considered to be "unadoptable," which can mean they are elderly, have aggressive tendencies, and/or special needs.
Iguanas aren't the easiest pets to care for. They require proper space, lighting, heat, humidity, specific diet, and plenty of attention. One of the most common diseases captive iguanas can develop is Metabolic Bone Disease, or MBD. MBD is usually related to inadequate diet and improper husbandry. An imbalance of vitamin D3, calcium, and phosphorus will cause an iguana's bones to become weakened, and could also affect muscle contractions and blood coagulation.
Bentley and Rosie are two iguanas with severe Metabolic Bone Disease. Bentley is a medium sized adult male, picked up by Animal Control in San Francisco. His age is estimated to be around 2-4 years old. Rosie is a large adult female, found in a trash dumpster and turned over to Modesto Animal Control. She is approximately 4-6 years old.
Sloppy Seconds has agreed to provide a permanent home for these two beautiful iguanas, but we'd like to make sure their transition is as easy and as comfortable as possible.
We need your help in raising funds! We are planning on building a huge outdoor enclosure attached to our iguana room, so they can get plenty of sunshine and have more space to climb around. We also need to build new perching and branches inside the iguana room to accomodate Rosie and Bentley's special needs. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation today! Thank you.
