Scooter-putter....

We have had our tortoise for almost 30 years... I call him "scooter-putter"....
I have often said... he is the perfect pet...
Doesn't bark,
don't have to take him for a walk,
doesn't chase cars,
doesn't chew up my shoes,
doesn't need a litter box,
sleeps all Winter
and he loves to eat dandelions... lol!

 and he is the only other 'male' in our house besides my hubby.... lol!

 "Attack of the Ginormous Tortoise" would be the perfect title....

but in reality, he is only 12"long.... and now appears to be camera shy!

He was in hibernation,,, but todays temps got up into the 70's and he decided to go check out the lawn....in search of some dandelions I suppose.
