Just for clarity negative comments about an owner's decision to rehome their tortoise, are not welcome and will be removed.
Meet Tommy, an adorable male Horsfield who is coming up to 8 years old. He is from Rossendale, Lancashire and he is looking for a loving and caring home due to his owners health. He is energetic, fit and healthy and although he eats a natural wild diet it isn’t always possible to go out and forage for them, so he does have a few naughty bits too, the owner feels it will be an easy adjustment for Tommy to change over to a totally natural diet.
Tommy does get outside in the sun to top up on the uv from our English sun when it’s out but sadly he had to come indoors far to often and because of the size it is to small to build a secure outdoor enclosure but Tommy would love quality time in a safe, secure environment with his own house to go into to heat up should it get chilly.
Tommy is much loved and has all the relevant vitamins, supplements, heat and uv that he needs and the owner has made this difficult decision for the happiness and wellbeing of Tommy.
Oh, the ornate decoration on Tommys nose is not a permanent fixture, it’s a dandelion petal
If you feel you can offer Tommy a lovely home with safe and secure outdoor and indoor accommodation then feel free to contact the owner stating ‘Rehome Tommy’ as the subject. matt.Pitt@hotmail.co.uk. (copy & paste address) saying what you have to offer and a photo or two would be nice. Delivery might be available if the right home can be found and depending on distance.
Remember that species cannot be mixed and quarantine period should be followed.
Good luck to you all and please keep me posted.
