No alarm, it's meant to show temps outside and display them inside your house
Thanks haha, Yeah I got it a couple years ago

When you are preparing for a new tort and you and your boyfriend refer to him by starting sentences with "when the new baby gets here"

 

[Saleama]

You get a bonus from your boss, and you blow it on tortoises

LOL.... My contract changed hands last month so I am getting 2 weeks of vacation paid out tomorrow. I adopted five tiny baby box turtles this weekend and my Russians learned how to get out of their garden. Take a wild guess on what I am going to spend that money on? And it is NOT a PS4 or Xbox 1.

[StarSapphire22]

When you "plate" your torts breakfast.

Today's special? Oh, why, it's spring mix on a bed of dandelion, topped with a sprinkling of cucumber along with a side of pumpkin and a pansy garnish.

And when your shopping list includes a bathmat so he stops slipping in the soak bin.

When you go to a restaurant and you get a salad and the first that pops in your head "OO tort food!"

 

[TommyZ]

When your excuse for adding more torts, is because 1 doesnt eat the fresh food fast enough and you throw it out.

When you go to the store and buy a dog bed but not for your dog and he LOVES IT!

Sleeps on it every night.

 

[Cute_Obi]

When you have a framed photo of your baby tort at your work cubicle.
and
When you sit in front of your tortoise's enclosure and baby talk to him and suddenly your sister show's up and says, "Eww is that what you do all day", and your answer is "Yeah!".
