No, no, no!

Even if it was a NATIVE reptile, it would be quite traumatic to it to move it so far. If it was suited to life in the wild, it would already be buried and hibernating. In any case, this is not a California turtle, which not only means trouble for the turtle but also for M&M's Mommy if she is caught dumping it there.


I am a little amazed at the number of PT'ers who (especially after it having already been clearly established that she is in an urban area and this is not the turtles' native habitat) are in favor of just abandoning it. A cat would have a much better chance of surviving, but I don't think anybody would be so callous as to suggest dumping a kitty.
