Guapo Lives in the House NOW

Guapo's recovery from injury has been fraught with ups and downs, but just when things seem to be turning for the worst, a dramatic bounce back happens. That pretty much sums up todays episode on our most love Cuban rock iguana!

Like my Grandma use to always say......If it's itchy, it's healing. ❤

[@user-hj1xh7en6e]

So did mine

[@mildredpadilla5734]

I hope he has a complete recovery ❤️‍🩹 so he can live his best life where he loves to be “outside”. With LOLA 🦎

[@KampKenan]

We do too!

@@KampKenan he might surprise you and make a great recovery because I've seen many a reptile survive lots of crazy injuries

Praying for Guapo

[@AquariumArmy]

This is more then a big bummer, Kenan. Anyone who's been watching your KZbin for even a week knows how much you love Guapo. Here's to a speedy recovery, he'll get there, give him time.

[@kevinbryan4260]

He's still looking GUAPO. Have a speedy recovery

[@KampKenan]

Thanks!

[@marcellacruser951]

Stay with us, Guapo. We love you, buddy.❤

[@bluedeva]

I know this may sound strange Kenan but the way in which he responds to your voice, I would say let him lay on you and give him lots of love and cuddles too. I know that yes medication is so important to help him heal but giving him love will give him reassurance to keep fighting thru his recovery too. It’s always great to see your sister being there with you all too 🤗 sending every ounce of love and healing positive wishes to you, Guapo and Petro 🤗🤗being in pain will dehydraterate him especially if he’s doing the right thing but thing staying warm enough for the medications to work. I’m sure if you offered him some mashed up banana I doubt he would refuse it 😄 as maybe the dried food is too sore on his jaw 😉🤞🏻

[@jebVlogs556]

The release of endorphins in the brain when being nursed or groomed will help Guapo recover greatly.. he's in a lot of pain right now, with the stress of fighting Petro and the added stress of getting "help from the vet care." It will take some time for him to heal.

[@chaoticature]

I am not necessarily a religious man but I bet those prayers helped, just like the affectionate care you suggest, will help. The warmth of a caring soul is within our Auric/ Taurus field thingy and healing can be shared. Is this why hugs/ cuddles feel so good?

[@CelticStar87]

Offering mashed bananas or other moisture-rich foods will be two-fold. It will be easier for him to eat (less sore on his jaw) and help keep him hydrated. Even using something like the repti-chow/croc-chow soaked in water would be something to try. It’s a trick cat owners have used to make sure cats are getting enough water in their diet (soaking dry kibble in water).

[@KampKenan]

great suggestions, thank you

[@MQuirk13]

happily teared up after seeing all that energy after giving him those fluids!! much love guapo 🙏💚

[@carolley9705]

Such good news on Guap. Itching is a good sign of healing. Means he's got new skin starting to grow. Sunshine will help too. Keep it up Kenan.

[@sallyrutledge4726]

We are all with you, Kenan. A sick or injured child is the worst pain on Earth... and that is how it feels for us too. Dr. Mike is such a blessing. And Seeing Guapo move and look out the window .... that was such a tear-jerking JOY !

[@KampKenan]

So good to know that he is gonna make it!

[@mymusic8990]

We had Twitch for over 14yrs. I do not know how old he was when we got him. He was such a good boy and I miss him to this day. He used to sleep on me. He had quite the character, but was one of the family and was good with people. I hope Guapo makes a full recovery.

[@beccasmith4364]

Come on Guapo! You can do this! We are all here cheering you on to a full and complete recovery!!!! We love you!!!

You’re one of the rare, real ones that really shares all the truth in their animal keeping! Good for you man!

[@channelisafunnyword]

Really glad things are going well with your cold-blooded hound. Those wounds probably wouldve meant his death within a few days in the wild. The fact that he trusts you so much to allow all the poking and proding and cleaning is remarkable and heartwarming. Respect to you for the care you show your creatures

[@cathyhavrilla8063]

He is my favorite of your animals. I’m sending comfort and hugs to him ❤️

[@galwithamal7960]

Sending healing prayers for Guapo - what a tragic thing. Such a nice rhino iguana. I have enjoyed him over the years. Such a special dude.

[@Cribro-xu6it]

Cuban Rock Iguana but yes he is a special dude

[@Weeks25]

Petro the rhino iguana is the one that attacked Guapo. But they are pretty similar.

[@gasperkanoni8838]

[@Alberad08]

Your engagement combined with the natural toughness of these guys give Guapo certainly a good chance of recovery. Great to watch him deliberately cruise around the house now.

[@katelyn8743]

I wish all youtubers were this confident and well composed when it came to the care of their sick/injured animals

[@leesreptilesandaquatics6368]

I know I am my iguana injured her back leg jumping from tree to tree and I took her to the vet right away they had to drain fluids and do surgery cause she fractured her leg and I was calm as Kenan here I'm also a youtuber. You are right I've seen others act like fools and so dramatic about their animals injury which upsets the animal more.

[@shirleyanneyoung955]

Prayers for Guapo, he’s beautiful. ❤️❤️💚❤️❤️

[@xturtlex84]

Guapo scared me! Im glad he is perking up. Try watering down those pellets so they are softer for him. Love you guys ❤

[@sheredoz]

I had to water pellets for my recovering beardie & the flavour smell is stronger & he wanted to suck them in. Excellent idea.

[@sherriew36]

Kenan, the love you have for your babies is so wonderful and inspiring. Guapo looks wonderful after what he has been through. Sending Guapo hugs and healing wishes, we will be here cheering him on 🥰👏👏👏

[@wraith1320]

Poor baby. 🥺 I’ll be praying for you guys. 🙏 I hope Guapo makes a full recovery! Such a beautiful, friendly iguana. ❤️

[@Goose00123]

[@user-io6xw7zv5o]

Hi Kenan. To me, guapo appeared to be dehydrated. The best thing that helped was the fluids. I’ve come to love guapo. Good luck and God bless.👍🙏🏻

[@jebVlogs556]

You know that's a good idea... IV fluids do help. But also if he's in an area where Guapo can hear water running like "irrigation" system to cause him to automatically get some water..

[@christinailes7846]

Prayers for Guapo!! Wishing him a speedy recovery with no more pain or problems. ❤❤ Lots of love from Ontario Canada.

[@melize]

I know these things are hard to show, but I can't tell you how much it helps those who have struggles also. When people only show the perfect, the rest of feel like failures, like we can't do this right. We are currently struggling with a non healing wound on an elongated. Love you and best wishes Mr Kenan ❤️

He really turned around after the fluids.. you and Mike have been so ontop things with guapo! Love guapo!!❤

[@Danniedorito]

Im sorry honey, him, lola, and you are what got me to research them. I've been reading and learning and collecting supplies. I'm almost to building my enclosure ❤ I think I know what I'll name him now. I am so sorry. Two years ago i had my bf sit in bed with me and watch the videos you've done on these two and thats when I started learning and preparing for getting my own. This situation has been heartbreaking 💔

[@beckyjo8745]

Scared me at first!! So glad hes improving. 💙🙏💙

[@ariyoiansky291]

Man, Petro did a number on the old guy but Guapo is strong and making progress with your diligence. I hope he makes a full recovery, Kenan.

[@bkm2797]

So it wasn't Lola that hurt Guapo? Just saw this today.

[@ariyoiansky291]

​@@bkm2797 It was Petro... Somehow Petro found his way into Guapo + Lola's enclosure. Guapo and Petro proceeded to fight with both being unable to get away from each other resulting in deep lacerations to both lizards. Guapo got the worst of it though.

[@bkm2797]

ariyoiansky291, That's really sad, but I'm relieved it wasn't his girl Lola, thinking they had some issues in the past. Guapo is such a good boy, I hope he recovers soon. Thanks for letting me know what happened.👍🦎

Healing Prayers for Guapo. You are doing everything you can for him!! Glad to see him rally!!! 💜❤️🙏🏻

[@CiCiGourmand]

Kenan it's so nice to see how much you love your animals. It touched me deeply when you started to pay his itches for him. That's true compassion that we all need more of. Best of luck to you, Guapo and the rest of the Kamp. 🩷

He is looking so much better. Aqua is the meaning of life

[@jessicap5513]

He's such a sweet-natured lizard (when he isn't fighting another male). He is a healthy, well-cared for animal and that will help a great deal during recovery.

[@lisawinter3456]

Praying for Guapo. Thank you for keeping us informed. You are a very good dad to all your animals. They are lucky 🍀 to have you. Dr Mike is wonderful also.

[@JanieAmericanIrish7777]

OMG ! 😢 I hope he pulls through this . He needs rest. Lots of love and food. Some sun time with his Dad there . I really hope he pulls through this .🌹He is lover not a fighter . As this video moved forward. It shows his strength and desire to live. He does want Sun time. 😊I think he is telling you but I'm sure your worried about bugs. Maybe a Sun lamp .

[@lydiastotzer554]

Our dog just had to have part of her intestines removed 2 weeks ago. The waiting and wondering when they'll eat part is the worst part of recovery. But scars or not Guapo is still a very handsome man and I'm so glad he seems to be doing better!

[@billreich8954]

It's exactly what Sam said the other day that hydration is the biggest part of their recovery!

[@candacedolan4857]

Poor Guapo. Prayers and positive thoughts that he makes a full recovery. He needs a new "kings" enclosure to celebrate his recovery and single living status.

[@lisaweatheral4458]

Funny fact: My mom’s iguana had an outdoor enclosure and an indoor one. When he was in the indoor enclosure (that was in their sitting room) he would watch TV with my parents at the door of his enclosure. Really cute amd sometimes funny when he would Bob his head at the TV.

[@sarge2500rw]

Glad he's doing better. I went to put my retic down and tried 1 last treatment, it was baytril and Ceftazadine and he is doing the best he's been!! Baytril is pretty rough on them and skin. But that combination works well!! Guapo will be fine!!! ❤️

Get well soon Guapo, sending love from the uk.

[@Administrator_O-5]

Poor Guapo, please keep is updated. I'm very concerned about him. 20y he's NOT a pet, I get it he's family. I'm a 47y 6ft 5in 320lbs guy & this has tears streaming down my face. He's just such a beautiful animal & he has a very defined personality. I can't even imagine how hard this has been on you.😢

[@KampKenan]

Thank you so much for the concern. He’s definitely doing better. We’ll keep you uodated🤠

[@Administrator_O-5]

@KampKenan 1st, thank you for taking the time to respond. Please do keep me or your channel updated on his recovery. I am a huge animal lover (I am of the belief animals are infinitely better than people) & it honestly broke 💔 when I saw the other video when you took him to Dr. Mike (who is beyond awesome, BTW! ). I honestly have never seen an animal with a complex personality like Guapo. Besides being a beautiful animal, he is very intelligent & you can tell he not only trusts but loves you unconditionally based upon how he responds to you. If I may offer a suggestion, Guapo merch would be very cool. Besides a shirt, I would get a plushy Guapo, too!

[@johnnyalfonso3531]

Prayers Do Work!!! Amen!!! 🙏

[@H3is10RD]

First part of video he was laying and slightly opening his mouth. He seemed thirsty. Mine will kind of lick the air so a gently sprits water by the front mouth and they lap the water up. Him trying to scratch himself means he's healing. That's a great sign. Love watching how caring you are for your animals! :)
