first guest / pet sitting

Our first overnight guest is a lifelong pet of one of our good friends. Camerin and I have had the pleasure of feeding, bathing, attending, and monitoring a Russian tortoise. After some initial research Camerin found that the tortoise enjoys green leafy vegetables and the warmth of a heat lamp. Our little friend is somewhat gender and name confused. She is currently responding to “Sasquach”, “Stanislaus”, and “Sebastian”. After an original “shell-shock” the tortoise has become very active digging, climbing, and eating. We think she is truly enjoying her new surroundings and caretakers.
