Turtle Accident. On Wednesday, our cat “Cookie” knocked down my turtle cage that had two turtles inside while we were out. When we got home we found water all over the piano, (I put my turtle cage on the piano.) I tried to find the turtles after the spill; I found the bigger turtle hiding under a newspaper a few minutes later. On Thursday I did not find the small turtle. Today while I was cleaning up the house, I found the small turtle covered with car fur (the small turtle clawed 10 meters from the spill.) near the TV. The small turtle’s shell gotten weaker while out of the cage. I quickly fed them and put the Turtles back into the water.
