<div>Recently rescued 6 year old Desert Tortoise Dee (Delightful) came out of hibernation and was extremely weak—too weak to eat. So,  we immediately took her in to amazing Dr. Karen Schacterly at Access Vet for a tube feeding, as well as calcium and and fluids injections. She’s slowly improving, but still very fragile and needs weekly medical care to save her life.

<div>In addition to Dee, we have Sammy who we nicknamed "Blackie" due to his unusually dark color. He is an incredible 70-year old, really a just a kid in tortoise years. Unfortunately, Kevin has to put him in time out when he bobs his head and bites other tortoises. He has been suffering from a chronic respiratory condition. He has been battling this for several months and is undergoing weekly medicated nasal flushes to clear out his sinus system, injected antibiotics, along with a tube feeding and fluids.

<div>It is hard to predict when any of our 70+ members of the TortoiseLand family will need veterinary care and we are having to dig deep for unplanned expenses to help Dee and Sammy. We would love to have funds set aside for their weekly care. Every dollar you give us will help us to continue to provide world class care for our tortoises!

<div>TortoiseLand is a sanctuary for tortoises in Los Angeles, CA. Our 501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization rescues, rehabilitates, rehomes tortoises and we educate the public about their vital importance in our world. Tortoises make fantastic companions, but some of these majestic creatures unfortunately end up sick, neglected, abandoned, or dead. Many species are endangered, and some are on the brink of extinction. Our mission is to make the world a better place for tortoises and save them before it’s too late.
