Hello You Very Kind People!
You've been so reassuring and helpful.
Tomorrow, my little dalmatian will have survived her first week with us.
Still, I wish she'd eat more and I don't know where the heck she poops.
Here is my question.
Let me set it up...
I am in Montana where even in high summer, July, the sunshine is not all that. This year it was smoke from the wild fires.
Okay, a few years back, I bought a light box. The kind of light that is very bright and used for 'light therapy.' It mimics natural daylight in its spectrum. It runs on a timer from 15 minutes to an hour.
Now, for the question. Ready?
Is it okay if I share my light time with my tortoise? Can I awaken her and bring her out to keep me company while I check emails and catch some rays?
By the way, this is not a tanning light. Heaven forbid a leather face from winter time sessions with 'the box.'
Thanks again all of you nice people and well met!
