Have To Get Rid of Tortoise

[BarbieBasile]

I'm new to this website. I have an African Spurred tortoise that I need to get rid of. We've had it for two years, we love it, but we don't have a place for it. Any ideas? Citrus Heights, CA (Northern California)

Hi Barbie: I'm sorry you are no longer able to keep your tortoise. I know that's a hard decision.

There is a tortoise rescue in the Hayward area:

Bay Area Turtle & Tortoise Rescue
Ginger Wilfong
510 886-2946

And there is a turtle club in Sacramento:

Sacramento Turtle & Tortoise Club
Felice Rood
916 421-1134

I will also take your sulcata, however it would be quite a drive for you. I'm in Clovis, CA, just east of Fresno.

Have you thought about putting an ad in the paper and trying to sell the tortoise? If so, just be sure the new people understand about raising a sulcata. Its not a cakewalk!
