Hello from Southern California

[Oswald's Mommy]

Oh of course in such cases dogs are NOT pets. It makes me sick too, believe me. It really is too bad.

I'm here on a temporary basis, however, I do not know how long that will last.

Well I wish you the best of luck! <3

Hi and welcome to you and Oswald !

Thank you! What kind of tortoise do you have?

Hi, I collect my Redfoot this weekend (provided his enclosure is ready and maintaining the correct temperature gradient and humidity).

That's so exciting!!!

It really will! I have always dreamed of being a tortoise keeper! I can't begin to express how excited I've been for the past 6 weeks of preparation!

Hello. He is doing great today! He's enjoying breakfast and a nice soak this morning! How is your little Oli doing?

Glad to hear that.

Oli got rather restless and inactive due to the......HEAT WAVE. He got me very worried so I posted a thread called: "Too Hot?" It seems normal, and I'm doing all I can to keep him cool.

Am I to buy him an......air conditioner?! hahahaha!

Poor little guy! You don't have air conditioning standard in Jordan? Keeping you and Oli in my thoughts!

Our air conditioner is killing the humidity in Oswald's tank. I think we are going to have to buy a humidifier. He had a closed tank and I can't get the humidity to stay up.

Hello @Gillian Moore
I have some new pics of Oswald from today that I thought you might want to see. I still can't wait to see pics of Oli!

What a pretty tortoise he's turning into.

Hi @Oswald's Mommy . No, I'm afraid we have no A/C standards here. Thanks your sweet and and kind. Appreciate both!

Moreover, no vets, no food for torts, no humidifiers and the rest!! How do you like all that?

Well considering the circumstances I think you are doing wonderfully. I am glad that you have this forum for support in being able to get the proper stuff for Oli. Good luck with your heat wave! I truly would not survive ours without A/C.
