hi ive posted this on other posts ive put up aswell but the tortoise we got on sunday hasnt had anything to eat since we got him/her she/he just doesnt seem interested we have given the foods that we were told to give her/him which is kale and wild rocket which we were told she/he had been eating in the place she/he was befor hand now wouldnt she/he have eaten this by now? we are finding it very hard at the moment because our knowledge on her is very very little im so infuriated with this woman at the moment rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

well my partner has spoken to specialist vet whos told him to give her/him tomatoes and cucumber to try start her eating if no change in 2 days she HAS to go in omg ive neevr been so scared

Hi Angel
You have done the best thing contacting the vet, for your own peace of mind. Keep positive and I am sure she will be OK, My Molly never ate for nearly 3 wks when I first got her as she was so stressed, but after she settled in she ate for England.

thanks for that thats reasureing to know shes not touched the tomatoe so wegoing to tesco later to get her some cucumber hopefully that will tempt her enough is there anything you can suggest should we go out for the day leav eher in peace? its a fairly busy house 3 kids dog 4 ferrets maybe its all to much for her i feel guilty that she wont eat. how did you cope with your tort not eating for so long?

HI I replied on your other thread, and then found your one here too :)... What tort have you got? also how old? where did you get tort from? Owning a Tort is scarey when its totally new to you. Im new too, so dont worry your on the right place to seek help and advice. I'd be lost without this place:)...There are plenty of experienced and friendly members here, so I am sure someone will give good advice. Im afraid I cant answer your probs with your tort, as Im not experienced enough, I wouldnt want to give wrong info.I think the best thing is to post in the Health section ALL info on your tort, everything you know or have been told by the person you got tort from. Have you been bathing tort to prevent dehydrating? especially if not eating. Claire&Teddy

hi  im posting new thread on the health section with all details in that one im sorry for comfuseing everyone
