Now that she's back she's not going to be going outside until her run is extra fortified! :D

Thank you all for the help! Today exactly 1 week since she went missing she was returned by a kind lady. I'm so ecstatic to have her back.

I have shared with Doglost FB group, Public & Twitter. I hope your tortoise is safely back at home soon. X

hi, make sure he's not dug down into the soil - my friends tortoise went missing for a couple of weeks - it had buried itself in the soil and then one day it appeared again. also watch out for birds of prey in your area

Alternatively, of course, could someone have stolen her? When you get her back, perhaps get her microchipped.

I am sure the owner knows all this but look under every single large leaf and bush - into corners. Look out at garden first thing in morning and may see her marching across a patch of open ground. Poster everywhere so everyone knows where she is missing from. Also look at any drops (in tortoise terms could be 6 inches down at edges of lawn, etc) to see if she is lying on her back and can't get up. My friend was sitting in her garden once and a tortoise came over the top of the 6 ft fence so nothing is impossible (I assume there was a climbing plant the other side that aided the ascent).
