I take my rabbit here - they're wonderful.
For my first rabbit, I used to Dr. Monaco at Old Country Animal Clinic when I lived in Nassau.

I am so jealous you have a tortoise..I have so many questions..does he live outside? what about when it is cold out? are they friendly? what do they eat (veggies?) I always wanted one!

We just purchased a 3 year old Greek tortoise. He stays inside only. He will only get to be about 8 inches in size. He is very friendly. He eats mostly leafy greens and you need to give him some supplements as well. You have to soak the bottom of their shells too and be careful with what lights you use at different times. But he is adorable and we love him!
