Even though it is some work, especially during the early years trying to keep up with everything to prevent pyramiding, I'm really enjoying being owned by a tortoise.

Whenever I see her eating and stumbling around in the enclosure, I smile. They do little things that make it all worth while. Can't wait for her to get big. :)

I think it's the eyes. I love all animals but my lil redfoots melt me when they look up at me. Such sweet and gentle creatures.

I never kept tortoises because I thought they were boring.

Now I only keep tortoises because they are the best pet you could have!

No fleas, no smells, no noises, no behavior problems. Just set them in a garden, sit back and watch :D

I can't say tortoises are my top fave, but they are right up there. However, aren't we really owned by all our animals? I know I am:D

Haha awesome Seinfeld clip!!

To me, a great comedian is one who can crack you up using jokes WITHOUT the topic being race, sex or using curse words. ..but that's me ;)
