Notes from Mending Spirits Animal Rescue

Meet Miss Mississippi!

Miss Mississippi is a curious little map turtle with a BIG personality—and an even bigger appetite!

This sweet girl loves keeping an eye on everything happening around her. If you come near her habitat, don’t be surprised if she swims right over, pops her head out of the water, and watches you with those curious little eyes. She definitely doesn’t want to miss out on the action!

And when it comes to food… Miss Mississippi LOVES to eat! She has a wonderfully healthy appetite and is always ready to see what’s on the menu.

Her Favorite Treats

Miss Mississippi’s current favorites are:

Apples Crickets Dried shrimp The occasional carrot

Her Regular Menu

For a healthy and varied diet, Miss Mississippi enjoys:

Frozen adult turtle food cubes Nutri-Sticks Turtle pellets Leafy greens such as romaine lettuce Mealworms

Want to Spoil Her?

Miss Mississippi would be thrilled to sample some new goodies from you! Some fun treats she’d love to try include freeze-dried chicken, duck, or fish cubes.

She’s curious, food-motivated, and always ready for her next tasty discovery. Give her a chance to get to know you, and you’ll likely have a little aquatic friend swimming over to say hello!

Miss Mississippi’s motto: “If you’re near my tank, you’d better have snacks!”
