    I'm in petco and I want to scream!!

    I agree with you , most people buy on a whim, and dont take into consideration that these are living creatures who will be with you a long long time . even parrots are like this... and too many ppl dont think before they buy :(

    funny story

    so last night getting ready for bed, my youngest says "Mom what are you doing?" I tell her I am looking online for a special light for Romeo (our Russian tort) " what does all those letters mean MVB/uva/uvb ?" she checks out the site I am on and said " why does he need that he already has HBO"...

    the boys got the turtles. ..now I get to take care of them!

    my child tells me she is taking Romeo with her too, I tell her maybe not :P I am getting way to attached (LOL) I figure I am pretty lucky as long as they ask for cute torts, and no spiders or snakes... ack :P I am so afraid of snakes, I see many here have them...

    I would love to sell our house and live somewhere warm.. I could def give up the snow and if I missed it I would take a mini vacation , then go back to the nice warm weather... I wish I lived in some of the locations ya'll live in that I could keep torts outside all year round :) let dreamers...
