Hey everyone! My name is Nichole and I don't currently have any tortoises. I have been really researching them and have been wanting to get my own for quite some time. I am trying to learn everything I need to know before I actually get a tortoise because I feel that if we add one to our family, there a lot to know before we actually commit.
I have had a few box turtles over the years (most of which were rescues that were reintroduced into the wild with very little interaction) I shared a rescued eastern box turtle named Marley with my ex and I lost her in the breakup, she thrived and even had her own turtle fence in the backyard complete with a swimming hole, basking rock and shade tree.
I live in Northeast Alabama and I was wondering if anyone in my area has tortoises and/or could give me some guidance on getting my own. I would like to rescue/adopt a tort that needs a good home.
I have a shih Tzu and 2 cats but they are very friendly to all types of animals and would actually snuggle with Marley.
I am very interested in a Sulcata or a Leopard. I really appreciate your feedback and I look forward to getting to know everyone!
Thanks for taking the time to read my long and drawn out post
