I am so sorry for your loss. I am sure he appreciated the love and care you gave him. The garden sounds like a nice place for him.

I can only imagine how you must feel. I'm really glad Sparky got to spend his time on Earth with You. I hope you and everyone that loved Sparky will feel peaceful soon.

That's terrible, sadly sometimes they just don't makle it, no matter how hard you try.

Just thus side of heaven is a place called rainbow bridge.
When a tortoise dies who was loved by someone., that tortoise goes to rainbow bridge.
There are wide open plains and warm baskingspots.for all our beloved tortoises to spend all day basking in the warm sun.. There is plenty ofgrasses, and flowers. Lots of warm water to soak in. Our friends are all warm and comfortable, and play together all day long

All the tortoises who have been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remembered them in our dreams of days and time gone by The tortoises are happy and content, except for one small thing. They each miss someone very special who had to be left behind.

They all bask, and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance.
His bright eyes are eager and intent, his shell starts to wiggle. Suddenly he begins to run from the group his stubbby legs carrying him over the plains, faster then they ever could in life.

You have been spotted, and when you and your tortoise meet, you cling togetherin joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy head rubs commence, your hands once again caress your tortoise"s head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your beloved tortoise, so long gone from your life, but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Sorry for your loss. I just recently became a tort owner and in just a short time I have come to love my tort so very much. I couldn't even imagine your loss.

I am so sorry for the loss of Sparky. I lost my tortoise too a month ago. Take care.
