My Sister's Turtle Part 2 (Funny)

[rebsar]

Hi! We went to my sisters on New Years Day and I got to see first hand how funny her turtle is. (He's the one who likes to be out of his tank.) She let him out and my niece and I were playing a board game in his room and he kept circling us and occasionally he'd walk right across the game!! It was really cute. He'd try to climb up on my lap. Then when we went into the living room he followed us. He almost runs--it's so funny. When we were all sitting in there he'd just sit on someones foot and if someone got up he'd follow them. You could hear his shell thumping across the wood floor. If my sister's sitting on the floor he climbs right up in her lap and sometimes sits on her chest right under her chin. It's so strange. You just don't think of a turtle as being so personable. When she finally put him back in his tank he was so upset. He'd just swim back and forth so fast trying to get our attention. She has a guinea pig too and the turtle and the guinea pig like each other. They sit together. The only bad thing is that you really have to watch where you walk!!! He's always right by your feet!! Anyway, I just thought that was so cute and wanted to share it with you. Happy New Year!!!

Happy New Year rebsar! Hope you had a good time (sounds like you did).

Thanks for sharing, we love hearing stories like this. They confirm that turtles are :ahem: the very best pets!
Do you have any pics of this turtle? Or videos of him following people around? I'm sure they'd be a hit with everyone.

Hi! I'll try to get a picture of him next time I go over there. It might be a few weeks. I'll try to get him with the guinea pig, too.

It was so cute. I've never thought of a turtle as a cuddly pet!!!
