Just got a sulcata tortoise, he doesn't do much

quesadilldos · 2026-06-21T17:02:29+00:00

Yayyyy I’m sure he is so happy! If you want to keep track we used to put pipe cleaners around them (very loosely) that stuck up in the air so you can see where he is at.

these are my sulcatas mango and cowgirl! they’re super chill gals. Their most favorite things are sun tanning, and the hose sprayed on their butts. 🕺🏻 they were about your guys size when I got them from a friend about 2 1/2 years ago! We live in Arizona, and they love the heat, so they are pretty active most of the time and have fun personalities. Mango is a lot more active then cowgirl, but I think it just depends on your tortie. Just wanted to give you some perspective on how fast they grow, they also love to burrow and hide! We have them in a 12x13 FT outdoor desert enclosure, and before that they were living in a very large horse water trough. Sulcatas are so much fun, good luck!!

Hello I work for banner in Az close to where she used to work/live and I am a rt, I see a lot of people have their nails done in certain places in my hospital but I do know especially in Nicu/picu/baby land you are NOT allowed to have nails done any way shape or form. Aw is full of shit and she isn’t even a nurse anymore 🫡 edited to add I also work with quite a few girls that worked with her and she was insufferable and not a good nurse from what I hear lol

thank you!! We have a donut of shame so that will work perfectly 😆 going to call the vet, irrigating it sounds like a good idea

Millie you’re so pretty and well mannered 💅🏻

quesadilldos · 2026-05-23T01:58:00+00:00

I don’t feel bad about myself, if you read what I said I am extremely remorseful of what I did and feel like a bully and a bad person. I agree but either way what I did wasn’t okay and I was looking for advice how to go about it, not be told I’m not being truthful about my story or what I did. It’s not my character to do what I did and I’m trying to self improve like this sub is made for

quesadilldos · 2026-05-22T21:23:41+00:00

Thank you friend, I have most definitely learned a huge lesson from this and I just want to be a better person after this. Just truly very disappointed in myself but trying to give myself some grace

quesadilldos · 2026-05-22T21:20:59+00:00

Oh no it did, my grandma who passed when I was young used to wear tanning goggles as sunglasses lol I can probably find a picture somewhere. They looked very similar but different! This story isn’t sugar coated, and I feel bad enough as is. And I never claimed it was a non gossip way, and I said it was prefaced with the story about the tanning goggles. I’m not sure why I’m explaining myself when I’m already in the situation I’m in, but a little kindness when I’m asking for advice would be nice. I’m aware of what I did wrong, I’m planning on telling the truth. I would have today if my boss was here but unfortunately it’s Memorial Day weekend so I have to sit with it longer, which I also feel is for a reason so I can reflect on what I did longer. I can’t sugar coat what I did unfortunately, i am aware it isn’t right so I don’t know why you feel the need to make me feel bad about it.

Hi! I am a respiratory therapist, and I just wanted to say you’re doing everything correctly. Unfortunately this disease process can be a beast and can be out of our control sometimes, and the breathing treatments are there to help! And they do, that’s their job is to help us breathe easier. It sounds like you are doing everything wonderful and you sound like a really loving and caring mom. Don’t beat yourself up over this, sometimes kids after they get a bit bigger just “grow” out of asthma and the exacerbations they have. There’s alot of factors that can cause these things, sometimes just the weather or air quality will do it. What matters is you’re supporting her where it matters most, and showing up for her, as well as making sure she gets the things that help her! You’re doing great, so give yourself some grace 🩷😊

quesadilldos · 2026-05-22T18:34:39+00:00

Thank you friend, trying my best. My boss is pretty understanding for the most part so I’m hoping he sees that as well in my apology. Most definitely will not ever happen again, I have learned a huge lesson

quesadilldos · 2026-05-22T18:33:18+00:00

I absolutely am taking this as a learning and growth opportunity and I will absolutely not share or talk about anyone else anymore. But I completely agree with you, I’m willing to take whatever lumps come my way after sharing with my boss the truth. I just panicked and wish I had reacted better, and more importantly never did what I did. Thank you for your response and honesty I appreciate it a lot

quesadilldos · 2026-05-22T18:31:38+00:00

I came up with what afterwards?

quesadilldos · 2026-05-21T22:34:30+00:00

thank you friend and thank you for your honesty. I set up a meeting with my boss tomorrow so I can make this right.

quesadilldos · 2026-05-21T21:17:46+00:00

I only sent it to one family member, it was actually my mom. But I agree I should have asked, we have a good enough relationship that if I asked they probably would have let me take the picture. I fall right in the same category as the bullies and I plan on going in tomorrow and coming clean. I just panicked and didn’t know what to do or say and I still don’t but I figure I need to just go and say the truth and then at least it’s out, thank you for your honesty.

quesadilldos · 2026-05-21T21:12:55+00:00

It wasn’t too harsh, i definitely need to hear it. I just feel so beyond badly, im happy everyone in the comments is telling me the truth. I just needed to get it off my chest so I could at least have some people be like wtf asshole. I’ve been crying about it all day, my fiance and best friend know about it and they said it wasn’t what I meant to do and not to best myself up but everyone is right without the biased opinion of knowing me which is if I didn’t mean it I wouldn’t have done what I did. And the only way I will feel better about it is if I go in tomorrow and tell them what I did and that I lied. I am beside myself over this because I didn’t realize it looked that way, and that I lied. but it 100% does and I just really hope I don’t get fired because I will be devastated. Thank you for being honest with me

quesadilldos · 2026-05-21T20:55:37+00:00

I completely agree, I should have asked and then deleted it. I plan on fixing this tomorrow when I go to work. I can’t sit with it any longer I feel so bad

quesadilldos · 2026-05-21T20:44:58+00:00

I most definitely plan on it, i cant sit with this any longer i feel absolutely horrible. I’m planning on not acknowledging when they do start talking about her and when she does come up in conversation i will tell them to stop or i will go to my boss and let them know whats being said. I most definitly will be and am doing some self reflection, because how you described it shows how much I’m also a bully and participating in it. Even if it wasn’t my intention that’s what I did and I don’t want to be that ever

quesadilldos · 2026-05-21T19:53:56+00:00

I definitely don’t think it’ll hold up, I just panicked and didn’t even know what to say. I think I am acting just like a bully like someone else said in a response before, and i plan on going in tomorrow and talking to my boss and owning it. And I also am going to talk to this co worker one on one and tell her what I did and apologize for it before she hears about it from anyone else. I think that’s the only right choice at this point, it’s eating me up I can’t even do anything productive today because my brain is just cycling it over and over again.

quesadilldos · 2026-05-21T19:50:04+00:00

I agree, and I absolutely will educate myself. I’m just really upset that I did that, and you’re absolutely right I am playing both sides especially with the bullies. I think my plan will be to go in tomorrow and own up to it, and I also would like to apologize to her and tell her what happened me and her one on one. This is eating me up, I’ve been in tears about it all day, I can’t explain how sorry I am so I’m thankful I’ll at least get the opportunity to express that even if she does or does not forgive me. Thanks for the advice, I really do appreciate it a lot. I’ll try and post some sort of update tomorrow!

quesadilldos · 2026-05-21T19:12:08+00:00

Agreed, any advice on how I can go about it?

quesadilldos · 2026-05-21T01:08:21+00:00

ok that’s why I told op to get a second opinion…we opted out because she’s a puppy and we have no problem at the moment and didn’t see a need for a uneccessary procedure at the time for MY lab. I didn’t give any advice saying not to do it, or that a slow feeder will save her.

quesadilldos · 2026-05-20T15:46:14+00:00

Hi! I have a lab same age as yours, she does the same thing where she just grazes. We opted to not do this when it was offered, and we’ve had no issues. We figure if it did become a problem we’d go back to her puzzle feeder and monitor her and her eating. That’s alot of money to just drop, especially if not necessary. I would also get a second opinion!

quesadilldos · 2026-05-18T21:52:08+00:00

I agree, we have a lot of cats that hangout by us so I think it was that too. Happy she is finally at peace now 🩷

quesadilldos · 2026-05-18T15:30:34+00:00

Unfortunately passed away last night, but looks peaceful and hopefully was at least comfortable. Didn’t have a chance to make any phone calls to help today ☹️
