Most of you all have read my exploits after obtaining Houdini the Jerk about month and a half ago. He has literally spent every waking moment trying to escape and ending upside down. Without exagerating he has been on his back no less than 5 times a day, often more. I have spent enuf time running to the back, up and down the damn stairs so much I have lost 10 lbs since he's arrived.

I admit he is cute. But horrible...

Just horrible on a daily basis. I kid you not, this guy hates me and is freakin miserable here. Plus he makes me work too hard. My pens are set up for Sulcata, not a fruit and dead fish eating tortoise. It is freakin wrong to feed fruit to a tortoise.

So his exploits have me hopping and actually are fairly funny...now he is serious. I live in a rural area and have rats and other rodents and wildlife. Rats, rather than jump over the Sulcata 4 ft fence they go under and have chewed away the bottom of the fence enuf so they can squeeze under. Houdini the Jerk discovered that today just to complicate my life more...this is what I saw a bit ago...

Lmao??
He reminds me of my Bull Terrier.
P**s you off but at the same time laughing your arse off at the antics.
He's just keeping you young and on your toes?

He sounds like a perfect mate for my Alpha female that wants to eat me.
