Alice, one of our more elderly boarders, had a relaxing stay with us this week — and surprised her owners by laying eggs shortly after returning home!

Tortoises are reptiles, which means they lay eggs. Even without a male present, females can still lay unfertilised eggs! 🐢🥚

Well done, Alice ♥️

Tonight's early evening walk produced some tasty treats for the tortoises we are currently looking after. Yum! 🐢

Cotton-fluff & Ernie came over last month for their well-being check, nail trimming and bathing (due to his mattered fur)😁

Regular checks help spot issues like parasites, ringworm, bumblefoot, and diet problems early. We check weight, skin, fur, eyes, ears, teeth, nails, and movement.

Lilith had hers done last month— littledolittle1.wixsite.com/littledolitt...

We were thrilled to welcome Nala, our very first ferret! She was cheeky, inquisitive, and full of bounce!

Ferrets are clever, playful little souls who thrive on enrichment and exploration.

Nala's daddy kindly gifted us a board to help keep her safe!
