Good Morning TFO ! ! ! !

Happy Friday! ! ! ! !

Happy Friday, indeed! I'm waiting to hear back from a vet who can come do an X-Ray of SO's front leg. The vet is booked up for a week and a half, but they're trying to squeeze me in. Hopefully this afternoon. When big tortoises don't move, their indoor plumbing shuts down. It can be a very big problem for them. And SO hasn't ventured out of the shed now in about a week. (The picture you saw of the mud hole was about a month old) At first I left him alone hoping he'd get hungry or thirsty and come out. He did come out a time or two, but when he realized he couldn't support himself on his front leg, he went back inside. So I've been feeding and watering him in the shed.

I hope SO just need time to recover. Best wishes to him and you. Keep us updated.

I'm not the cheese person also. I never order the cheese burger. Or even on my pasta.

Pizza, is the only exception.
