Tortoises Rehomed

Val and Vern are two Leopards. Val is appx 10 years old and Vern is appx 12 years old
The owner of Val and Vern wishes them to remain together and not be entered in to any breeding programs what-so-ever.
Val tends to be the bossy one. Vern has a mis-shapen carapace. The vet clipped a little of Vern's shell at his bottom to minimise risk of infection due to the shell not forming properly which has left an exposed area. We are pleased to say Vern has never had any problems.

If you feel you can offer Val & Vern a new home together, please find our contact details in the "Applying to Rehome a Tortoise” section, where you will also find details on how to apply to rehome a tortoise through the Tortoise Protection Group

Dolly is a very sweet elderly North African tortoise, probably Moroccan. She has
been with her current keeper since 2004. She is not suitable for breeding due to
her age and should be kept on her own due to the fact that she had a bout of RNS
in 2008. She has been clear since then and has a healthy appetite. She is a very
quiet, gentle tort who likes to be able to eat and then spends most of her time
basking. A home in the SE would suit this tort best. She will require both
indoor and outdoor accommodation.

Lady Soznica is looking for a new home.
She is about 15 years old and is a Russian Tortoise (Testudo horsfieldi)
Current owners have had her since she was tiny. In recent years she has become lethargic and been hibernating for too long. Several visits to the vet have revealed no illness and so her lack of condition has been put down to her current living accommodation being too cold at night. She is currently being nursed back to full health at the Royal Vetinary College with a feeding tube. She will soon return to a new indoor enclosure for this winter only when she must not be allowed to hibernate.
Sozzy needs a new home as her current owner is spending increasing amounts of time abroad. She normally eats well and enjoys roaming around the garden. Current owner will deliver her to a suitable new home anywhere in the country – their only concern is her future health and happiness! She is much loved!

If you feel you can offer Lady Soznica a new home, please find our contact details in the "Applying to Rehome a Tortoise” section, where you will also find details on how to apply to rehome a tortoise through the Tortoise Protection Group
