Hi! I'm new also. My name is Sarah, and my almost-yearling Sulcata tortoise is called Lizzie. Short for Elizibeth. My best friend is the proud owner of her will-be boyfriend William. They were impulse buys at the fair last fall. Yeah yeah, I realize how dumb that is NOW! In the mean time, I have fallen in love with Lizzie and have resigned myself to the fact that she will quickly go from pet to roommate, and I am fully prepared to give up half of my living space. We are very happy and doing great.
I do have one major question. I am having some trouble finding a decent tort vet. My sister's little buddy we ordered online stopped eating and was sick, and we looked up suggestions online, but the vet we ended up taking him too wasn't so much a tort vet as he was a vet that happened to own a tortoise. I'm trying to find a really knowledgeable tort vet somewhere near Spokane, WA before I actually need it this time. If anyone has any suggestions that would be great!! Thanks!
BTW, attached is Lizzie exploring my kitchen.
