Hello, and thanks for using Boop by Petco. While I would recommend your mother consult with her doctor about their recommendations for her, I see no reason why they couldn't be in the house. However, be aware that Salmonella bacteria is part of the natural skin flora of many reptiles, so I would take that into consideration and limit her contact with the pets. But, again, her doctor would be the best person to offer her guidelines. Hope this helps.

Hello, Many Petcos will accept surrendered pets. It depends on individual location. Call your local store and if they do not accept surrenders, they should be able to tell you the closest location to you that does. I hope this is helpful. Thanks for using Boop by Petco!

Only you can decide to exchange Peach or not. Your options include returning her for exam and treatment if indicated, exchanging her completely or taking her to your own veterinarian or a vet experienced in treating reptiles for an exam. You are well within your guarantee period with Petco. Contact the store where Peach was purchased and discuss your options with store personnel.

The Cowfish, or Longhorned Boxfish, is a marine species that should be kept only by experienced aquarists. When stressed, they can release toxins into the water which may harm tank mates. Pacman frogs, leopard geckos, corn snakes or bearded dragons are all easy to keep.

Thanks for reaching out about Pacman and including photos. Found quite a few websites with information including Reptile Magazine, Petco, Petsmart and other pet stores. This would be a great start. Read as many as possible to assimilate the wealth of information. Good luck.
