Hello Ed
I have sent you a private message. I appreciate your concern, I am sorry but did find your tone slightly offensive and accusing. I have therefore sent an email to you to clarify the situation. People who know me on here from the beginning when I actually inherited her from an...
Hi Yvonne
Thank you so much for your time and care, and for talking with the vet on our behalf. I really do appreciate your support.

My little Egyptian Tort is called Tiny T.
Please can you let me know if herbs are OK to eat (every now and then) - she seems to love Parsley. Is there any specific herbs that definitely I should avoid. I am talking specifically about herbs as I know they can be quite strong.
How about...
