I have a Hermanns tortoise, a 2006 hatchling. Recently he's been eating less and has been quite docile, i.e not moving much at all. The other day when i went to check on him he was inside his shell and looked like he was sleeping, however he will not wake up. I'm very worried he's dead, and I don't know what to do. Can someone please help!
Thankyou.

Hello i just adopted a 16 weeks old kitten 4 days ago and the previous owner said he had a cold and got treated with Antibiotics about 2 weeks ago. He is very playful, runs and eats a lot but his eyes seem to get worse. First it was only one eye which was halfways open .now both eyes seem pretty bad...i think he had/has the cat flu...why is it getting worse? Can he get blind? I think i should make an vet appointment asap, what do you think? I am also worried that my other cat which will be released from quarantine in 2 months will get infected . Is there still a risk after 2 months? Thanks

ok well now i cant have a tortoise so i am very sad :(
i am thinking about a turtle. what breeds are their that stay relatively small and you can get them in Australia? i have seen long neck ones but they look like a snake and scare me lol murray river turtles are cute when they are little but they get really big and i dont want a massive ugly thing. also are turtles good pets? do they warm to you? i heard they bite do they? and i cant have a massive cage but its big enough for a small turtle. i heard that if you have a small cage they stay small is that cruel? and can you even take them out of the water or do you just look at them? if you can take them out then how long for and what do you do with them? is their any turtle i can get that lives mostly out of water? yer thats about it
ok any other info would be appreciated
xx

I've asked a similar question but people keep suggesting snake breeds that arent native to australia so pleeease if you answer, know what you're talking about.
I'm wondering what kind of snakes are good to keep and not to pricey. Any suggestions...?

I have looked around webside but they all ask for an adoption fee and they dont really say what it is... does anybody know about how much it is?
And they also say something about home visits... can anyone explain how those work?
Would you suggest adopting?
Oh yeah... ive been to 1-800-find-a-pet.com (i think thats it)

We have an 8-year-old male lab. Very friendly .. lovely dog. Supposing I went and brought home a pet mouse.. how would he re-act to it? He's an indoor dog, so has almost no experience interacting with other animals aside from dogs. Would he treat it as a friend or foe? He wouldn't try to kill/eat it, would he?

I recently immigrated to the US. I have two red-foot-tortoises in my home country and I want to bring my pets over here. I didn't know that they would survive in here, California, but last week in a pet store, I saw some red-foot-tortoises. I guess they can adapt to this weather. Thanks for any input.
