My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

How this pet arrived:
Tiny was brought in by his previous owner on December 18, 2024.

Why this pet is the one for you:
Meet Tiny! Tiny the red-eared slider may not be belting out ballads, but his charm will have you singing his praises in no time! As an invasive species in California, Tiny needs a home where he can safely live out his days without risking a stroll into the wild. Whether it's a spacious indoor tank (100+ gallons) or an outdoor pond, Tiny is ready to dive into a forever home where he can bask, swim, and soak up the sun. His ideal setup includes a bioactive pond or a tank with a strong filter to keep his environment as clean as his shiny shell. With a potential lifespan of 20+ years, Tiny is looking for a dedicated fan ready for a lifelong commitment. He enjoys turtle pellets but thrives on a species-specific omnivorous diet. And don't forget a turtle-proof fence-no unauthorized adventures for this guy! Bring a secure carrier for Tiny's grand exit from the shelter, and let him become the star of your pond or tank. He's ready to bask in the spotlight with a loving new family!

More about this shelter

San Diego Humane Society, an open-admission shelter, is creating a more humane world by inspiring compassion and advancing the welfare of animals and people. Our lifesaving safety net has helped San Diego become the largest city in the U.S. to keep healthy and treatable shelter animals from being euthanized. We are a private, independent, nonprofit organization that is not affiliated with any other humane society or society for the prevention of cruelty to animals.

With campuses in El Cajon, Escondido, Oceanside, Ramona and San Diego, we provide animal services for 14 cities within San Diego County. We not only care for 50,000 animals in our communities but also share the expertise we have gained through our innovative programs with shelters nationwide so they can save more lives in their communities.

While our influence is expanding nationally, our top priority is meeting the needs of San Diego. We provide exceptional care for all animals through world-class veterinary medicine, shelter and most of all: love.
