Default Stolen Hermanns, Deal, Kent

Taz my 7yr old Hermanns has been missing since yesterday evening. He was nowhere to be found when the tortoises were brought in for the night from their enclosure. Today the enclosure has been dug over thoroughly and he is confirmed missing presumed stolen.

This has been reported to the police and is being taken seriously. I am currently preparing a flyer to be distributed around the local area and will also be putting up posters. I have already called John Hayward (National UK theft register) and am taking his advice.

Can everyone in the SE corner of Kent please spread the word as I am devestated that our lad is missing and extremely worried for his safety.

I am sorry to hear about Taz and pleased you have let John Hayward know. We have our Kent meeting tomorrow (Sunday 6th Sept) and I will mention it then. I cover the whole of Kent so will circulate.

Thank you very much. Taz will be featured in the East Kent Mercury issue due out later today. I have emailed all vets I have an address for, issued posters to all local vets & pet shops and flyered the entire vicinity.

No news yet

I wish he had as our garden is also very secure and my dogs would have found him, but the torts enclosure is concrete lined, no gaps and 4' high fencing. Still no news whatsoever
