Smile 90 yr old tort update!!!

Ha Ha unbelievable I'm still smiling!! The lady who had Tammy came round banging on my door and accused me of not telling them that tortoises 'bite' aparently the smallest child went into enclosure, Tammy ran at her and bit onto her little toe and wouldn't let go!!
The kids (and the mum) are now terrified of her and I had to go and frogmarch her out of there!!
She is now in her luxury accomodation, she had her head in the water for ages so was a bit dehydrated, she had also been 'crayoned' on but apart from that look absolutely blooming.
You were all right in saying they would get fed up!!
Thankyou all so very much for all your good wishes, your advice and your comforting words..that is what kept me going.
Will post pics when I fathom out how!
She is a little star, and about to be spoiled rotten...Sue x x

Oh brilliant!
Clearly Tammy knew where she wanted to be
Poor kid though - I bet that really hurt! ouch!
I'm so pleased for you, and for Tammy. Seems like things worked out for the best in the end (apart from the poor little kid's toe!)

Ha ha the child will get over it, but I don't think I would of if I hadn't got her..she has alredy pulled at a few dandylions growing in her enclosure, I think they only gave her lettuce which she isn't used too.
