You should sit in front of him eating veggies. Maybe it'll inspire him

Re: at the vets office....

I'm assuming the parasites were the root cause. Also maybe from hunger since he had not eaten for about 6 days... just a piece or a bite here and there. Ans that was again from the parasites....

He will be forever remembered... only has him for 3 or 4 weeks, bit damn guy made an impact on me... he will need burried in the back yard. Wish there was a way to preserve him for ever though.

Thanks for all hopes and sympathies everyone. I will be ordering another one today or tomorrow. I can't believe how attached I am to tortoises...

3-4 weeks is still more than enough to form a strong attachment. I'm sorry for your loss.

Re: at the vets office....

Thank you everyone... i burried him in a little tupper wear container, with her substrate, and her favorite fake plant to hide in. also threw 4 dandilions on top of the tupper wear before i put the soil back.. it hurts, but there was nothing i could do. go him to the vet just too late

i did order my new one though. i didnt want to waste anytime. i can wait for my new guy to get here!! think i will stick with Blastoise for a name though.. i know it is weird to do, but i really like the name.
