I have sadly lost one of my tortoises over the weekend. They were out in their penn at our caravan and one has went missing. We are unsure if he has escaped or it might be that a bird has taken him. I am devastated and feel so stupid to have not thought about a bird taking them.
The tortoise I have lost is called Tiddles, we are unsure of the sex as he was only 2.5 years and not yet sexed.
He was lost at Haven caravan park Burnham-on-sea, North Somerset.
Tiddles has a protruding lower jaw. His companion Shelly was untouched.
Both myself and two children are distraught.
I have contacted the local RSPCA and wildlife rescue to circulate my contact details. I also intend on contacting local vets today incase someone does take him in.
Tiddles is the tortoise to the left of this picture.

We have lost our 5 year Hermann Tortoise in the Weybridge, Surrey area (KT13 9AL). We put her in our backyard on Saturday 1st Sept but when we went to bring her in later that day she was nowhere to be found. We have alerted our immediate neighbours but she has not been seen now for 6 days. We have put out some of her usual pelleted Tortoise food and this has been eaten 3 nights in a row but I moved the position of the food yesterday nearer the house and it was not eaten. Please help we miss her terribly and do not know what else to do to find her!


I have attached the most recent photo of her unfortunately it has been edited by my son so sorry about the face but at least you can see her shell markings. Her name is Misty and we believe she is female.

My young Horsfield went missing from her outdoor enclosure on Monday 22nd July. I have attached photos. Tora is 3 years old, very out going and friendly.

We have searched our garden and the neighbours gardens. Checked to see if she has dug down. We have dropped flyers around the neighbourhood, put cards up in the local shops and informed the locals vet surgeries. As yet no news on her.
