[QUOTE="wayamargiela, post: 1995125, member: 115364"] I had gotten a baby beardie June 1, 2022. His name was Dexter (I called him Dex). It took him about two weeks to get used to me and not run from me when I tried to handle him. Shortly after he started to become attached to me. He’d glass surf whenever I put him in his tank & he’d even stick his nails into my arms when it was time to go back in. Whenever I took him out his stress marks would disappear & he’d find a comfy spot on my body & just nap. Last night I took both of my beardies out of their tanks & I gave them their night rubs as I usually would. They fell asleep on my chest (my pillows behind me had me reclined in a way). I honestly can’t remember falling asleep after I put them asleep but I somehow did. I was woken up this morning by my other beardie because he crawled up my chest onto my pillow to continue to sleep. So I looked at him & I looked at my chest & I didn’t see Dex. I also forgot to mention that when I fell asleep I was on my back. I woke up in the same position I fell asleep in. Anyways.. I got out of my bed because atp I’m freaking out & I see my poor Dexter :(. He was lying on his back and so I picked him up & he was so cold. He didn’t reach for my index finger as he usually does to lay his body there. I just broke down at that point. I was very attached to Dex & I know that in a way he was attached to me. I feel so bad & in a way I know this is my fault. I took him to Petsmart so that they could send him to the vet & even when they were taking him away I just broke down again. The lady at Petsmart gave me a new baby beardie for free & I’m definitely gonna be a lot more careful with them now. I just really miss Dex & I’d never expected to be this upset & hurt about an animal but he was my first pet. He was so special to me! I took him everywhere with me (in his critter cage). Anyways, sorry for the super long post but I just really needed to vent about this. It’s been eating me up since this morning. [/QUOTE]
