I have my first Russian tort. I rescued from a bad situation. When I realized I wasn’t nesceassrily qualified either ( although much better) I decided I was going to rehome to someone who could provide indoor/ out door enclossures. I thought their would be several eager hands raised to adopt him. Nothing.
I’m in Michigan and honestly don’t feel like Every time I hear scratching I feel horrible that he doesn’t have enough room. He was in a 36” aquarium. I have him In Two zoo med enclosures. 3’x6’. I don’t mind keeping for a while but I live in a condo. His enclosure could be wheeled out on the deck but that’s it.
“Tuck” looks at me with those soulful eyes and my heart hurts. I want him to be able to walk around but everything I read says no.
I read about so called “rescues” that honestly look like more turmoil for him as he’d simply be shuffled until something comes up that could potentially be worse!!!!
thoughts???
