REHOMED - Isobel- 19 years old female Horsfield tortoise
Posted: 13 Apr 2019, 20:02
Isobel - 19 yrs old. Female - MERSEYSIDE
Isobel is a rescue tortoise who is now ready to rehome but under no circumstances can Isobel be used for breeding so either a lone tortoise or kept alone.
If for any reason the new home does not work out then Isobel will need to be returned to her rehabber.
Please read to the end to find out how to apply.
She is a typical horsfield, has the personality of a gladiator and a great inbuilt skill for masterful escapes. She needs a diet of weeds and wildflowers and above all she needs ongoing care.
She is still recovering (although she has come a long way) from a soft shell, so she is given just a single drop of liquid calcium in one of her three baths a week (she loves those). and she and is starting to eat limestone chalk and cuttlefish now, so well on the way to overcoming the shell problem.
Isobel has had full bloods done and the results were good, so liver, kidneys, etc. are all ok and no underlying problems. Isobel is also parasite free.
She would love, more than anything else to say a fond farewell to her rehabber and have someone as equally caring to take care of her and offer her a forever home with a nice large indoor and outdoor setup.
Leave your interests here, what you have to offer and the carer will contact you direct.
Let me know if there is any problems and I will do my best to help.

Isobel came to me as a rescue in November 2018. She arrived very underweight, dry and stuck shed.
Had full bloods, thankfully no underlying issues. Her shell is firming up nicely. She's a great eater, loves to be outside, a real character. I'm looking for a home that can continue her care , offering her a large indoor and outdoor setup, I'm based in Merseyside
