Additional adoption info
ABOUT TURTLE TIME SANCTUARY ADOPTION POLICY
Applicants
A person or family who wishes to adopt from About Turtle Time is willing to research the species they prefer to adopt prior to making application. An applicant needs to be open to suggestions on husbandry and refrain from using pesticides or other toxic chemicals in the turtle yard. The applicant should understand that turtles and tortoises can be quite expensive to maintain and is comfortable taking on this obligation. Applicants are also responsible for knowing local, state and federal laws concerning keeping chelonians. There may be fees involved.
Application
Applicants complete the Adoption Application and Adoption Agreement and return them to us for screening. Please be specific and know which animal you desire to adopt after you've done your research. After a properly completed application is screened, an appointment is then arranged with the applicant for a yard inspection. Applicant agrees to not sell, trade, or give away the turtle or tortoise. If you can no longer keep it then it MUST be returned to About Turtle Time. We reserve the right to refuse any applicant. We do not adopt to persons under age 18.
Yard Inspection
About Turtle Time strives to place turtles and tortoises in homes which can replicate their native habitat as closely as possible. Each species has different needs. We do not adopt land turtles or tortoises to homes which can only provide an indoor habitat. Land turtles and tortoises may be kept indoors only on a short-term basis when they are sick, injured or in certain other situations. Yards are evaluated to insure a safe, escape-proof habitat. There are naturally different requirements when one adopts an aquatic turtle or a tortoise which we will cover with you as applicable.
Pets
Any household pet MUST be kept separate from the turtle at all times. No dogs, cats, etc can be left unattended in the same space as a turtle at any time. It doesn't matter how special, sweet and gentle your dog is. Turtles and tortoises are not chew toys. Bored and curious cats and ferrets are also known to cause extreme harm and even the death of turtles.
Placement
Once an application is approved and the yard inspection has been satisfactorily completed, you may pick up your turtle the same day or arrange to meet at a later time.
Fees
By adopting a turtle from About Turtle Time, you will be providing a safe, secure and healthy environment for a special and critical part of our ecosystem. We are happy for your choice and appreciate your willingness to do your part in the care and conservation of this turtles. The adoption fee of $15 or more depending on the species, due with your application, will include a tour of the Sanctuary for the applicant. Check with us for available species and fees.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.
What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?
When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.
So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
