Good news everyone! My indoor clovers and grass have sprouted and are ready for noms!!!

HEAVEN IS HERE! 

That is so awesome 😀 look at you crawling in the noms garden. Its a good thing you’re not bigger. You’d have that nomed quicker than your human can say CHOMP.

This made me laugh. Silly human is quickly learning whose in charge. Especially when noms are involved. 🙂 You get that garden tortie! 

A picky tortoise has the anemone in his sights: A reader has been struggling to find acceptable foodstuffs for his newly-adopted tortoise

(Source: Telegraph.co.uk ) 

SIR – Recently I have had visited upon me a small Moroccan tortoise by a lovely granddaughter whose interest in animals has now turned to kittens.

However, we are struggling to find food it will accept: for Toastie (the tortoise) will eat nothing but anemone leaves.

I have read much about the tortoise diet, and have gone about gathering the most juicy of dandelions, from which he always retreats as if they were poison.

I have also tried nasturtiums, marigolds and other edible flower leaves, to no avail.

In desperation I obtained a “total holistic dietary food of dandelion flavour”, but when offered it he closed one eye before turning away as if to say, “You must be joking”. My once-proud anemones have been reduced to a row of bare stalks.
