ADOPTION UPDATE: The dynamic duo has finally found their Hogwarts haven! 🏰

Alastor (a.k.a. Mad Eye Moody, and formerly Tabasco - what a glow-up!) and his new BFF Voldemort (no, we didn't start a dark magic cult, it's just a theme 😂) are living their best wizarding lives in South Carolina!

Huge thanks to Alastor's new humom for sharing the magic with us! We're over the moon that we could help these two misfits find their perfect match for a spellbinding future 🫶

🚨 PSA: Attention all axolotl enthusiasts! 🚨 With exception to those grandfathered in, AXOLOTLS ARE NO LONGER LEGAL in ARKANSAS.

Any axolotl that was not registered by June 30th, 2025 can no longer be kept legally in AR. This means that if you acquired your axolotl after the deadline, you will need to make arrangements to rehome them or face the consequences of keeping an illegal pet. It's essential to remember that this new regulation is not only a matter of compliance, but also a responsibility to the welfare of these amazing creatures.

As others have already pointed out, there is potential for this to extend to other states in the U.S. (and possibly beyond). As pet owners, we are all responsible for periodically reviewing our local laws and regulations, particularly for an exotic aquatic pet on the endangered species list with ongoing legal proceedings.

Staying informed is crucial to ensure we can continue to provide a safe and healthy environment for our beloved pets.

Please refer to the link below for the full details and stay up-to-date on any future developments! 💡

Get caught up on Axolotl registration required by June 30 from the AGFC.

Don't forget about your nitrogen cycle! After all your hard work establishing that cycle, the last thing you want is to tub your axolotl and accidentally crash your tank! This can lead to a buildup of toxic ammonia and nitrite, putting your axolotl's health at risk.

Our latest blog gives an overview of what to do to maintain your tank while tubbing your axolotl(s). Whether you're a seasoned aquarist or a newcomer to the world of axolotl-keeping, this is a must-read to ensure the health and happiness of these exotic creatures.

Questions? Leave them here in the comments! We'd love to hear from you and help in any way we can. 💬

There may be times when your axolotl will need to spend extended periods out of their tank (most commonly when they are tubbed for treating illness or during deworming). Without an axolotl to produce ammonia, the bacteria that make up the nitrogen cycle that keeps your tank healthy have nothing to ....

We're so excited not only to have a member of the Whole Pet Veterinary Center staff fostering for us, but to have our fostered axolotl, Peek-a-boo, living at the Vet Center where she can help educate all of the Center's visitors about axolotls and proper axolotl care!

If you're in the greater Westford, MA area you should stop by Whole Pet Veterinary Center on Saturday, July 26th for Peek-a-boo's official welcome party.

You can also follow Whole Pet here on Facebook to stay up-to-date on the latest antics from Peek-a-boo! 🫶
