I have had my Russian tortoise Boris, for 10 years. I have a nice pen with a picture window for him and a large outdoor pen for nice summer days to run around and burrow in. He also runs the house very happily coming back to his pen for breakfast after spending the night roaming. He was very restless the last week and then I couldn’t find him anywhere. He never went down steps but I think he may have ventured out the door when it got left open. I think the restlessness was him getting ready to hibernate and perhaps was so determined to find dirt that he might have gone down the step to get outside. Is there any way to find him? I thought of getting blood hounds to sniff him out but I am pretty sure he is buried somewhere around the yard. I’m afraid he won’t survive the winter or I will miss him when he comes out? Any suggestions? I Love this little guy so much and am heartbroken that I may not find him.
