Can anyone help either (or both) of these?

[LoverOfTorts]

I don't even know what possessed me to look, but of course I looked on Craigslist and saw these two little guys that need a new, better life. I am in no position to help, but I wanted to share on here in hopes that someone is close enough to maybe give one or both of these guys a new home with MUCH better conditions. There appears to be SO many things wrong here. At least they are smart enough to be offering them for free.

I know...I'm right here but we have a sweet little tortoise that consumes all of my time and extra space (and mix in life and my children and other pets-I just couldn't do it). I wish I could help. It's sad. I just hope s/he doesn't re-home them right in the same conditions. They need to be separated and in larger, proper environments. I just hope the "free" price tag doesn't entice the wrong type of rescue.

I agree! Free price tag probably will:-(

I know, and thats why I posted it on here. I was hoping that by sharing this they could be given for free from someone on here who would only have to pay for shipping or someone who could put all of the $ into building the proper enclosure...fingers crossed. This person probably doesn't even realize how WRONG they are keeping poor animals.

I could take them if you can ship them. How much would shipping be?

I don't understand why people try and put different species together! Poor lil guys!

I have no idea? I know people on here have shipped though. Maybe someone can weigh in?

Could you reply to the add and see if the owner is willing to ship? I would love to see them go to a TFO member!

And, I of course would be willing to help out in any way I could as well!

 

[dlrowe]

I did send them an email waiting to hear back. I'm a little nervous about them packing them and shipping them if they are willing to.

The posting is flagged for removal now.

 

[LoverOfTorts]

I assume you never heard back from anyone?

 

[dlrowe]

They never responded to my email:-(
