Bashing, no. But, something has to rattle them. i don't understand how it could happen twice.I know, still, all I can think of now, is "that poor tort! Someone give her some pain meds! Now!" And "that poor OP!" I know he will do enough self-bashing without our help. I'd rather give him credit for reaching out for help.
I know, and I am in that "anticipating problems" category of people. Still, s**** happens, and really we don't know all the facts. I am anxious to hear the update on the injured tortie statusBashing, no. But, something has to rattle them. i don't understand how it could happen twice.
By the looks of this injury I think that's plenty of "rattling".Bashing, no. But, something has to rattle them. i don't understand how it could happen twice.
Me too. Hope it's going or will go well for all.I know, and I am in that "anticipating problems" category of people. Still, s**** happens, and really we don't know all the facts. I am anxious to hear the update on the injured tortie status
Kasia, I don't think this has been anyone's intent. People are simply passionate about their torts. And that's a good thing. I think.Bashing people online is not helpful. Whatever the reason. Please focus on helping not judging.
So very true!Bashing people online is not helpful. Whatever the reason. Please focus on helping not judging.
Very sorry to have just learned about that horrifying attack.I have a tortoise that was attacked by a dog, we took him to the vet and got shots and a solution to soak him in 3 weeks ago. now he stays inside until better. just got attacked again but much worse. no exotic vets around to take to... what should I do? please help. my number is 7148736087
Mr tortal is still alive and we took him to the vet the next morning and were the first to be seen. I was given ointment and a solution to soak him in diluted water and specific steps on what to do. Once a day he is to be placed in the water for twenty minutes, I then remove him and then apply the ointment to the less damaged spots. I then put sugar on the major wound as seen in the picture as told to do. I then let him rest and give him so grapes in front of him. This is tough for me and definitely worse for him. According to the vet, this must be done for 3 months. He will be indoors for the remainder of that time. I feel bad for him and call the vet daily to make sure I'm doing things correctly. Thank you for your help
