Even a drowned turtle that looks quite dead might just be waiting for you to help it get its breath back.


is this turtle move? is there eyes blink? is there any sign? like pupil.. anything..

I dont accept that lot has died.
I really dont accept really. why?

there talking about a short time after you find him, like minutes, maybe an hour or two but not days. You did all you could do, you have to move on. I know it's hard and it sucks but Lot just didn't make it, you can't bring him back and the more you keep thinking about it the longer it will take to accept it. It really sucks, I hate it hurt you so bad and my prayers are with you.

I had a similar situation, and Vlou on this forum really helped me through it. Just know that odds are he lived longer with you than he ever would have made it in the wild. You gave him a good life, no matter how short it was.

I agree with Jay...I know how sucks it is to loose a pet, I've been there...but live must go on, at least you've done your best
