The Tortoise Table

Hi, I’m looking for a tortoise to rehome. Preferably in Cornwall for travel reasons. large flat garden, spare bedroom if required for rehab/age requirements. I live down in sunny South West Cornwall, lovely area away from main roads, plenty of free roaming in safe garden. Experienced owner but now tortoise free since my husband passed away…then I wasn’t living in a suitable garden that I could access as I use a chair…now I’ve moved to a larger property with a lovely flat garden and can offer an excellent 5 * home. I don’t mind the type, I’ve had Horsefields and Hermanns and involved in rescue when we lived in Greece, obviously the Mediterranean local torts on Lesvos. We rehabbed and released back to their natural environment after witnessing another ‘rescue’ keeping them in small pens(something like 2 ftx1ft)to breed, we didn’t feel this was a suitable way to care for them so we set about doing something different. Thanks for reading, Dawn

Hi Dawn.
Do you know what species you’re after, we do have a lovely Leopard in Worthing but that might be too far.
Let me know and I will have a look.
I have just had a thought Dawn, why not go over to our Facebook page and scroll down through all our tortoises that need rehoming, the contact address is in the relevant posts. - https://www.facebook.com/TheTortoiseTable/?locale=en_GB
Or even the rehoming page in this forum and let me know if you find any that hasn’t been rehomed.

Hi Lin, thanks for your input, we have ‘spoken’ through email you might remember? I’ll go take a look thanks…Worthing might be a bit far, I’m lucky to live in such a gorgeous place, but it’s so far away from everyone! I am actually at the furthest point south that you can be in the UK!

Kind regards, Dawn
