Operation Saves

One of my favorite parts of sanctuary work is becoming buddies with animals that people say can't be friendly. Ever since I was a young girl I've always been drawn to the slithery, creepy and crawly animals as much as the cute and fluffy ones but my heart especially has a soft spot for turtles and tortoises. 🐢

Bowser was surrendered many years ago by his original owners after an impulse online buy . They realized almost immediately they were unable to provide him with the husbandry that comes with what will someday be a very large snapping turtle so he made his way to us. Immediately I began working with him and from day 1 fell madly in love with this very unique and beautiful guy. Now 4 years later he has stolen my heart and is a very good buddy of mine. He is gentle and tolerant and truly one of my favorites.

After making sure with the division of wildlife that we could take these 2 on and not affect our permit- We will be getting another snapper this week and a red eared slider after their owner sadly passed away. I am excited to give these 2 a safe place to live and open our doors to these amazing animals.

Since we now will have several large turtles and a large tortoise we have decided to provide them with a outdoor area during the day. This area will provide them with daily enrichment and give them an amazing chance to be outside under the warm summer sun and have access to their outdoor pools. We have a 6 foot tall privacy fencing already up but we need some things to help us finalize this project. We already have an amazing winter set up but this would ensure they have full access outdoors safely from sun up to sun down.

We only need to raise $250 in materials to finish this project. We also want to get these 2 into the vet for a well check in the coming weeks. Can you help?
