Emergencies and accidents involving reptiles, or any other pet, can have many causes and can happen at any time.

Here are some of the signs and symptoms that indicate that your pet reptile needs emergency care.

Extreme lethargy or not very responsive to stimulation
Reduced appetite or refusing to eat
Lameness, limping or difficulty moving
