Thanks you would have done the same.



Thank-you I hope I can go and visit at the animal sanctuary, and post a happy tortoise pic.

Animal sancturary?

Has the animal has been confiscated for sure?

Think I'd wander past that shop again and have a peek in the window tomorrow.

Sadly, the fact an Inspector said he would pay them a visit, doesn't necessarily he mean he will be dissatisfied with what he finds. If everything seems to be in order, there is not much they can do.

Sorry, don't mean to be a wet blanket, but three times I have reported things and bugger all has been done.

Re: How cruel!

Sad tale. Good advice given. I hope there is a positive outcome.
Would not be my choice of pet. A friend of mine had one and it had the free run of his large garden.

I will check up on this Mupsy, you are quite right to prompt me on the matter.

Re: How cruel!

Sweetie Pie, thank you so much for taking action. Being an advocate is one thing but being an activist is a true kindness.

I hope things go well for the turtle and am very pleased to know that there is an investigative staff who can act on behalf of animals and the citizens who want them well-cared for.

Re: How cruel!

My sister had a tortoise for years he was very friendly...I used to feel sorry for him though as he was always on his own...one year he just disappeared I often wonder what happened to him. I hope this one has a happy ending Sweety...let us know.
