He has his head in his shell and he wont come out...not to mention that his shell hasn't improved (it was soft when we got him). Last night he was fighting fit and today he's just shut down almost. His eyes are open but he wont poke his head out...its scary. He's got a vet appt at 5:30

dont know what im gonna do to be honest, waking up to him every morning before i go to uni was becoming a pretty routine thing...its strange how you can miss an animal so much.

Really sorry to hear this!!

scary how quick they can go downhill.

my advice is to get a replacement asap as ive always found when i lose a pet that this helps me cope with it.

I am so sorry to hear that poor little thing and poor you ((((hugs)))))

i really dont know whether i should. all i know is that next time i do get one, it wont be a young one - maybe about 5 years old or something. I know what you mean though..when my first ever leo died the first thing i did was rush out and get another one and it did help

First of all, I am really sorry that your tort has died.

Please do not think for one moment, that I am pouncing on this situation, but I am trying to gather data on young torts that die. Am I correct in thinking that you got your tort from Hamm last year?

If you need time to grieve for your loss, and you feel like telling me to go take a jump, then I will understand. But your experience with an import tort can only benefit us all...Once again Jenna, I am sorry that you have lost your pet...regards...T.T.
