Hi everyone. A heat wave has been "our guest" for the past three consecutive days. Temperature reaches 36-37 degrees C during the day and drops to 25 at night. Extremely HOT and dry.
I have noticed that Oli becomes rather inactive when it gets that hot. Is this normal or should I be worried? (Well I am worried, I'll admit it). He moves from the sun, and retires to the shade for literally HOURS. OK, at times I find him lying down with his hind legs stretched; meaning he's relaxing. Still, the issue is worrying me.
He's eating, pooping and I give him a soak in warm water THREE times a day when temperature is that high! Is it too much? I do not think it is irritating him, however I'd rather be on the safe side. "Better be safe than sorry."
Your advise/help would be highly appreciated.
Thank you.
