Ash has been with us for over a year, but it was worth the wait!!! Today he finally went HOME, and now goes by Pepper 💞 He has fulfilled her dream of finally having her first pet, and she has fulfilled his dream by promising to love him forever and ever! 🥰
He’s happy to finally be home. Congratulations to you both.

We don’t personally know these two, but I think as anyone with lots of animals, this is such a huge fear!

It’s not so much that Sam the Man escaped his pond that amazes us….. it’s the fact that he climbed thru 2 other tortoise enclosures to go say hi to Chewy. 🤔

Hot Sauce’s emotional support dog, Luna 😍

09/11/2023

Hot Sauce, our little ADV+ with MD, just laid her first 11 eggs. She got a warm bath, a little CC, and will get extra bugs and calcium tomorrow. 😍

(She is available for adoption, but would obviously require a well educated home and be the only lizard due to her health conditions)

She’s available for adoption!

Our furry friends aren’t the only ones offering therapeutic companionship in treatment centers!

Align, a family based residential eating disorder treatment center in Escondido, CA…. has welcomed two long-time residents of ShellVille to their team! These two Russian tortoises have been waiting so patiently for a loving home. Their wait is over.
We’re so excited for all parties involved! Stay tuned these coming weeks, as the excitement at Align is strong to decorate this enclosure and love on these tortoises!! 🥰🥰

This unique beautiful animal was born back in 1832.🥰🤗🧐 It's no secret that humans are long-living creatures. But there are some animals that could even outlive the United States. This unique turtle is one of these animals. Of course, this may seem unrealistic but in fact, the turtle has bee...

April’s PET OF THE MONTH is Sir Charles! We’d love to find Sir Charles his loving forever home before the end of the month! 🤞🏼

Sir Charles is a white tree frog, and can live with other tree frogs close to his size. He eats live insects, and needs a home that allows lots of climbing space and fun hiding spots. He does need a UVB light, as well as a heat light to keep his home around 85 (and 70’s toward the bottom) He has delicate skin that absorbs everything, so he prefers not to be handled too often.

If you’re interested in adopting Sir Charles, pls visit our website to fill out an application. Thank you!
