Have you ever.....

[ChloeCrull]

1. Fallen asleep for an entire night while cuddling your tortoise(s)?


2. Taken your tortoise for a walk around the neighborhood (and received odd looks)?


3. Eaten dinner with your tortoise(s)?


4. Mixed up your tortoises (you bad mother, you!).


5. Cared for your tortoises more than some humans?

For me, it goes:

1. Yup!


2. No; I've sat outside with them on the grass, but never strolled them through town.


3. Yes; I sat outside and munched on fruit while they ate some greenery!


4. Yes...it was the middle of the night, okay!?


5. Yes...

Nope- I'm not one for cuddling torts
Nope- Would love to, but miss sully kind of wanders off and I can't get mr russian to walk a straight line! Maybe I should try turtles next!
Yes- Sometimes I eat lunch while they're all crunching away... Haha, the turtles WANT my dinner... 'Give me that chicken!'
Nah- Elmo, you've gotten so much bigger! I need to cut you back on the Mazuri, huh?
LOL. I'll let that one answer itself.
(ps I don't give anyone Mazuri anymore... to avoid confusion )

1. Fallen asleep for an entire night while cuddling your tortoise(s)?
No. I tend to treat my tortoises like special wild animals, not hand pets.


2. Taken your tortoise for a walk around the neighborhood (and received odd looks)?
Not around the block, but into the park which is at an angle to my backyard and only the large sulcatas.


3. Eaten dinner with your tortoise(s)?
As in eating dinner sitting next to them, where I am close enough to observe them, yes. I do this outside all summer long.


4. Mixed up your tortoises (you bad mother, you!).
Hey, I even mix up my human children sometimes.


5. Cared for your tortoises more than some humans?
Of course, some humans are strangers so of course they are way down in my priority pole. My children have at times thought it was also true of them. They especially like to point out what a better (in their opinion) style of living we (or just me now) would have without animals around and money going into them.

No, no, no, yes, yes.
