I had that problem in a way, lol! I saved a sulcata from a saddening environment at a pet store that didn't give a ratsass about what they sold so long as they made profit. I saw her sleeping there in a tank with NO substrate, her little arms and legs hanging out from the light being too close were it was too hot and there was no hide for them in there.. I had to have her at that moment! Lol, now I have taken over my parents backyard and am in the process of making her a fantastically large environment for her! Lol! (they weren't using the spacehaha!) Also last week I got a one month old leopard tortoise! Everything about that little guy I'm in love with. The way he eats, sleeps, walks, even poops! Haha! (my chinchilla had bigger turds than that! I couldn't help but "aww!" when he made his first bowel movement
crazy, I know! XD) He definitely chose me, in an odd way, as if it was meant to be. I had come across someone selling leopards on this site, and after some frustrations with technical difficulties she sent him my way! Only when I saw the picture it wasn't the one I had picked out! Lol! But really it had to have been fate, because this little guy has brought nothing but joy the entire time. I'm freaking out like a new mommy over him, and have transformed my room into a tortoise paradise science experiment just to make sure he has everything he could ever need.
when you really love your tort, you don't mind the sacrifices you have to make, and actually dont see them as sacrifices at all!
I have been bitten by the tort-bug! Lol! They are like family to me!
