I am glad that you used the word "apparently" - because this is totally untrue. Pets At Home have in fact IGNORED our advice and are in no way entitled to make claims otherwise. The Vivariums they are selling are unsuitable, the dietary advice is poor, and claims made about the origins of the tortoises being sold are patently false. We are advising unsuspecting purchasers to demand a refund and to file formal complaints with Trading Standards.

I hope this sets the record straight.
