Our New Tortoise!







This is our new baby, Shelby. We adopted her after she was brought to Denny's work. She was hit by a car and someone found her and took her to Petacular. They then called the Oakley Vet and brought her down. Her shell was almost cracked completly around, but with a little glue and some wire screen she is back to being a tortoise again. She loves going outside to eat the leaves off of the weeds and her favorite treat are those little dandelions you always see in your back yard. We named her Shelby after the Shelby GT Mustang because she can move very fast. We love her some much and are lucky to have her.

I think it's great how you both are there for these animals in need. Poor thing, at least it has a good home now. I love to adopt strays too! Love Uncle Steve
