We Rehomed Artemis

We rehomed Artemis the tortoise.

 

With my decline in health, and the living room being turnedin to combination living room and my bedroom/hospital room, he wasn’t gettingwhat he needed any more.  He was endingup stuck in his vivarium all the time, getting very little attention.  He was not a happy tortoise, understandably.

 

Now he lives somewhere where they can give him plenty oftime out of his vivarium.  They also havean outdoor enclosure for days when the weather is nice enough for the tortoisesto go outside, which is something we could never provide him but is good forhim.  And, yes, I said, “tortoises,”since they have another tortoise already. They did have two, but lost one to medical issues last year and had beentoying with the idea of getting a second again. Then I said I was looking for somewhere for Artemis, so they felt it wasmeant to be.

 

They’ve sent us a couple of updates. Artemis is being welltaken care of, and he’s clearly happy now, which is good enough for me.  There were some photos with the updates, sowe could see that for ourselves.

 

Here are a couple of those photos, one of which includes his new friend:
