Wondering about a rescue train for this lovely girl

[Spike&lola]

If your willing to drop her off in wyandotte he is willing to take her. He is willing to drop her off in macon, Ga around 7:30pm monday night.

That shouldn't be a problem, as I get out of work early that day. Thank you so much! This has worked out surprisingly well

Now what do we transport her in?

 

[Spike&lola]

I have transported mine with me in a 18 gallon rubbermaid container, with a towel on the bottom. I didn't put a lid on it I left it open. My dad is drving and extended cab F150 so he has the back seat to set something on. I would think maybe even a small dog cage or as a last resort a box. I will talk to him about stress marks and to keep and eye on her for them. I hope this goes as planned. He did say he will be getting a hotel room in Macon, Ga and is hoping to be there about 7:30pm monday night and will be stopping there for the night to rest.

Well that worked out awesome for this little girl.

You do want to put the lid on because mine have the tendency to climb out of a container. I am not sure how they do it but, they do.

Also, you might want to put a towel over it so she can't see to much. It will help with the stress.

Good Luck

This makes me very happy. :mrgreen:

This makes me very happy too! When is your dad leaving from Wyandotte? Unfortunately I found out I work from 10-7 tomorrow, but have no qualms about dropping her off early (7:30-9:00)

This is really a fantastic community :mrgreen:

What timezone are we talking about? I would hate to be an hour off here lol.

I can do Macon but Atlanta is still an hour and a half closer for me and I know he'll be going through there

Thanks guys - this will work out nicely.

I pm'd my contact info to everyone involved so if anyone didn't get it, let me know and I'll make sure you get it.

Thanks again! :mrgreen:

 

[merritt]

Well, as I post it's 4:39 at this moment... I don't know where the timezone change is, but I should be an hour or so ahead of you.

Spike&lola's dad is a one man train!

Leaving now for a meeting in Pell City, AL, then on to ATL to pick up her cage setup and to Macon to fetch this girl.

She is well on her way now and barring catastrophe will be here late this evening. Enclosure will be set up first thing in the morning and we get it dialed and her hydrated, fed and settled in.

I will start a new thread with pics as soon as the critical stuff is under control tomorrow as I will be on the road until midnight or so this evening.

Thank you eveyone - I am amazed that we got this to happen so smoothly.

 

[Geno]

Well she is now at her new home. She looks really good. My back is killing me but the muscle relaxers are starting to work. :twisted:

The girl with the enclosure and accessories in ATL crapped out on me so I get to go to the pet store tomorrow and leave them far more money than I would like to get a setup going.

New thread tomorrow.

 

[Spike&lola]

I am glad to hear she made it ok.
