Hey guys,
So it's been awhile since I have posted anything on the forum but I was wondering how people feel about repticarpet for their torts? I have two tiny leopards in the same table right now. My other tort is downstairs and they are upstairs as it is warmer upstairs and they need a lot of heat being babies and all. The reason I was thinking about switching is because I am home sick today and went upstairs to feed the Leo's and came up to their table being destroyed by one of my cats. (I usually have a mesh cover on it but I must have forgotten to put it back when I was cleaning the table the other day.) Not knowing if they went pee in the substrate I quickly removed all the dirt. As my husband has the car today I was going to walk over to the pet store and get some eco earth. (I thought I had soil but it ended up being a bag of orchard bark. And the closest place to get top soil is to far for me to be walking, especially because I had surgery on Monday and probably shouldn't be walking anywhere for that matter.) So in the time being I put a towel down in the table and put all their accessories back. I then noticed my smaller of the two stuck his head out and laid on the towel like a pillow. They seem to really enjoy the softness of the towel. So I was wondering of you think I should try the towel or repticarpet and see if they like it. (That way I won't have to worry about my cats using the table as a potty.) If you think natural substrate would be better that's no problem my cats don't get in the table unless I leave the top off which I won't forget to do again haha. Sorry this post is so long. Any suggestions or opinions would be appreciated.
