Thanks Terry, you are so right it can be very tough But knowing that we are giving an animal a better life is our goal.

Robin, I too loved your site! I was so impressed with the roomy enclosures for the tortoises. They must be so happy

Our family used to have a lovely tortoise called Humphrey who we were blessed to have for over 20 years. Our climate is quite cold so this was a great age for him to reach. I remember as a child, our neighbour's children had several tortoises over the years as most never survived through hibernation. It was normal then to place your tortoise in a cardboard box packed with straw etc. I think the secret to Humphrey's survival was in allowing him to do his own thing by burying himself deep down into the soil under the greenhouse he used to live in. During the warmer months, he had supervised time to wander round the garden. We learnt a never to turn your back on them for a second as they are not as slow as they are made out to be! Our's 'escaped' the boundries a couple of times and was once found at the top of our street about to cross a busy main road !

Hello Lindi, I'm so glad you enjoyed the visit to our sanctuary. We are enlarging our tortoise enclosures this summer, they will be much bigger.
Hibernating tortoises can be very tricky if not done correctly and your Humphrey survived because you let him do it naturally at his own pace.
I know what you mean about tort's being faster than people realize and they are alot smarter too and very, very strong.

Welcome Denny

You have a nice website. I enjoyed looking through it. Your little dove swimming in the koi pond was really cute.

Thank you Lady Tarheel,
I was quite surprised to see them get in and swim like ducks!
After a couple years of having pigeons, that was the first time they played around the pond. I was concerned of them getting into trouble in it because it's 2 to 3 feet deep, but they managed just fine with no problems.
