Those of you who haven't read my introduction, I'm expecting a beautiful little leatherback 7 week old female whom I've already named Daenerys. She was shipped wed evening.. somewhere along the way someone screwed up. I was supposed to receive her guaranteed by 3pm. Long story short after multiple phone calls to the USPS customer service and multiple calls to the local post office my little angel is still in St Louis, MO (2.5 hours away from me) granted I could wait till 2am when she finally arrives in Cdale but I can't bear to wait any longer. I'm not even guaranteed she's still alive! All I can do is think the worst.
So I arranged with the postal workers to remove her from the truck and hold onto her. I've been awake since 4am stressing over not receiving her yesterday hoping I would get her today. (I even called into work today) We are now driving a 5 hour round trip to St Louis. Packed a micro-enclosure for her with food and other essentials. I'm already so attached to her and I haven't even met her yet! My advice to others is NEVER ship USPS this experience has been not pleasant to say the least! I've always received my reptiles through FedEx and they've always been superior! Granted the USPS workers have been awesome esp after I mention the word live reptile they jump fast lol.. Has anyone else ever had to endure such a stressful situation?
