shelby


well, i think some things happen for a reason. i didn't get the eleven year old but i am getting this little girl...her name is shelby and she is nine years old..now i am going to have TWO torties in the house..what am i thinking?





the couple has a three year old and a baby. ever since the first child was born she has not been happy. they gave it three years for her to turn around but now with the new baby she is even more unhappy.
i don't have her yet as the owners are going to bring her to the vet for her annual vaccinations for me. she hates the car and vet so we'll give her a day or two to recover from that so she doesn't at least associate the vet visit with me!
i have a whole plan of how i am going to slowly introduce her to everyone so she is not overwhelmed..think i'll keep her by herself at first and spend time giving her her favorite treats.
don't know what day yet, they are going to get back to me when the vet has an opening available, going to call first thing in the morning then let me know.
i'm excited!
