My Turtle Is Shedding White Skin. As such, it is a process that is experienced by all reptiles. If your turtle is shedding excessively, there are certain factors that you should focus on, like a rise in ammonia levels, overconsumption, high temperature, fungal infections, and vitamin a deficiency.

Cleaning the areas and dry tanking (keeping your turtles out of the water except to hydrate and feed them) to get some air on them is necessary. It may be an indication that your turtle is suffering from a disease or fungal infection. A few days before the turtle starts to shed/molt, the skin should look hazy as the old skin disconnects from the body.

Turtle Attacks Cat. How my cat greets me everyday. No matter how much food you give, a cat will play and attack any turtle or any animal they see.

It is a good idea to let the turtle/tortoise and cat get acquainted. As the cat lay on the kitchen floor of some pet owner's apartment, the turtle repeatedly hit it with its head and shell. How my cat greets me everyday.
