aye, just because they're 'wild animals' doesn't mean they don't have a playful nature, as she seems to really enjoy it, in my opinion it can only help to enrich her life n keep her active

Aye its true wild animals do play.

I come home the other day and my two hermans had put a net up in the middle of their table top, each wearing head bands, and proceeded to enjoy a game of tennis!
The hamster sat net to the umpiring!!

Balls to balls for tortoises, its a daft idea! (IMO)

That being said I have seen a red foot chase a cat, and kept doing it as if it was playing with it, on YouTube this was.

exactely if it aint broke why fix it? like i say, didnt go out of my way to get it for them. but if they enjoy it then what the heck. Horsefields have such character to em, they crack me up just watching them.

Tortoises playing with toys ???

Tortoises sleeping in chairs with cats ??? What on earth ??? Why is your tortoise on a chair !!! Apart from the fact he could fall off and crack his shell open this is not an ideal environment for a tortoise !!

sometimes I despair
