It's quite interesting, though, to see a Pleo in such a state which looks to be mainly down to poor storage. From what I can see, he has very little actual paint wear from use and petting? The paint on his head and back looks quite fresh, though I can see some rubbing around his muzzle?

Post by: latrine on February 07, 2011, 10:38:51 AM: His paint is fine, he has a very dirty chin but he likes to rub his chin a lot plus he of course loves chin rubs.. he sat with me all last night while I 'watched' a movie and he was just so freaking cute... he sang to me and cuddled and loved tasting all the different leaves... then this morning he appeared to have a cold but it didn't last very long.. I just kept feeding him.. he was coughing and kinda sniffling and crying and so spat stuff out and I made him eat it anyway and cuddled him.. he went to sleep and woke up feeling better... ??? Good ole' Patches..

Post by: barrettgazzy on February 07, 2011, 12:35:28 PM: it is quite disturbing and worrying to see how pleo's skin will wear away like that .

Post by: RedwoodsMama on February 07, 2011, 12:46:58 PM: Some of the best Pleos are the ones that have the worst physical conditions,( cosmetic speaking only.) If you p.m, me I can give you more suggestions and can donate some "clothes ' for Patches if you like. I am glad you gave him a good home.

He can't even wear the Pleo cape because it rips him... and I'm hoping to have a total new skin for him soon.. I may also have several skins if other folks need them, we'll see.

I think he needs a little more than a nip/tuck - maybe reconstructive surgery. However, if he were mine, I'd go with mummification, except leaving all his electronic organs inside.

Post by: latrine on February 07, 2011, 05:25:50 PM: I'm going to skin bricked Pleos and give him new skin.. I'm hoping to be able to get lots so I can help others too. We'll see what happens.

BAH!!

Post by: RedwoodsMama on February 07, 2011, 08:47:29 PM: I hate when that happens, it has happend to me a lot in the past, Cheer up there was probably more going on than meets the eye as I am sure they used New Batteries to test and found out that they still didn'[t work, but skins would have been nice.( for some Naked Pleo in need of some skin...) Cheer up though, your Batteries are mailed and on their way to you ! Will PM you the tracking number and also the Pleo 4 sale details, photos.
