Hi all! I'm a new tortoise owner. Just adopted a Russian ~3 weeks ago named Castiel (that was the name he came with, didn't have the heart to change it). He was a drop-off at the shelter I got him from -- poor kid/person who had him had a divorce in his family and couldn't keep him. I've always wanted a tortoise so when I saw one with a tearjerker story and named after one of my favorite TV show characters, I knew it was fate! He's my little nugget. My cats are afraid of him. Here, have some pictures!
When I was going through the adoption process, russiantortoise.net and this place was where I came (and continue to come!) for information. Figured I'd get an account here and introduce myself to all you lovely people!
I do have a question though, and if you'd like me to make a thread in the tort health section I'll understand: he hasn't pooped in about a week, whereas before this it was every other day to every few days. Cas is still a voracious eater, and very active when I take him out of his enclosure, so alarm bells aren't going off yet, but I'm still a little worried. Is this normal?
