Hi everyone I'm Cat *waves*.

Myself and my boyfriend have recently inherited his Papa's tortoise which is about 30 years old called Polepole (means slowly in Swahili)(pronounced poley poley).

I have searched and searched to find out what type of tortoise Pole is to no avail.

I have attached the picture of our gorgeous Pole Pants below.

Hello, Cat, and a very warm welcome to Tortoise Forum to you and Polepole.
Lovely tortoise and i'm pretty sure that's a leopard tortoise, though i have been wrong before.
