| Holiday Care Posted: 05/02/2016 by Ptolemy |
|
I have kept tortoises for many years and have always had friends who could mind them while I was away and I would mind theirs. I now have a problem as my recent minders wish to rehome their tortoise and will no longer be able to offer a holiday care service. My daughter has offered but she is looking at jobs the other side of the country so may not be around for long. Can you recommend any people who can offer a holiday care service? As you will appreciate I need someone with tortoise experience. I do not particularly wish to rehome my two tortoises, but if I cannot find holiday care then they may have to go elsewhere. I live south of Bristol. | |

Hello, The TPG is concerned with their welfare & to educate people keeping, or contemplating keeping them. I'd avoid any type of advertised holiday service. You need someone locally who could visit your garden & would enjoy doing it, plenty of people would, just spread the word discretely. A teenager would perhaps appreciate a bit of pocket money. Good luck, Tom | |
