Hi! I have seen alot of people asking questions like this, so: would you suggest someone buy a tortoise from a pet store?
Sorry the first option should just be No.

I fixed it for you.
Then my vote on the poll needs to be changed to no, please...mainey34 said:I would not suggest anyone buy from a pet store. But i must add this is strictly my opinion. You dont know where they came from, how old they are. If they have problems. You get what? A 30 day guarantee...then they try to sell you things you dont need. Give you bad advise..nope...not for me...just my opinion...

My thought is I can't rescue them all, but I can rescue the ones I can rescue. Ending their suffering may not be a cure, but it is atleast a starting point and something I, as a single person, can do. It's making a difference not just talking about making a difference in the lives of individual cats (and tortoises, too). I have always believed each life is important, each step no matter how small is important and if each one of us just took that one step no matter which belief or philosophy we think is right and believe in, then just think of all we could accomplish.... thus speaks the crazy cat lady.
