Do you kiss your tortoise?

[Kenazfehu]

For a long time now, when I take Neenyo outside or bring him inside, I kiss him on top of his head. I told my husband, and he said "why?"

I don't know! Because Neenyo is adorable?

In the past, Neenyo would pull his head as deep into his shell as he could, but now he lets me kiss him.

I don't kiss any of my animals, sounds a little gross to me.

 

[wellington]

Yes I do, every day. He is sooooo cute. He loves it too, he told me so. I kiss most of my animals. Dog, cat, bird, lizard and the torts. I don't kiss my fish, frogs or hermit crab.

Not gross at all. If you think about it, French kissing sounds gross. However, most of us do that

Heck, I kiss snakes/toads/turtles I find out in my yard or when I'm out in the woods.

I'm a lover, lol.

Yes, I kiss all my animals!

Never been a problem or gotten sick or anything. I used to kiss all the frogs I'd catch when I was kid, too. Freaked my mom right out.

When I had a dog I would kiss it, but with my RT no not really!

I dont kiss Cooper, but when I put him up for the night I pick him up and he will stick his head all the way out and rub his face on my nose. He has been doing this for around 10 months now. Ophelia just pulls her head all the way in.

I'm glad I'm not the only tortoise kisser around these parts!

 

[bigred]

Mine kiss me

 

[Kenazfehu]

Mine kiss me

How do they accomplish a kiss with no lips?

 

[RonHays]

Look at it from the tortoises point of view... They're being picked up and put up close to a very large mouth. For some reason I dont think that's appealing to them. Lol

 

[Tillasaurus]

Nope. I kiss the dogs. I don't the the tortoise would appreciate it.

 

[Snowqueen75]

I know for a fact if I kissed my two they would bite me, they think I'm food as it is, to be honest they think everything Is food lol

 

[Watsonpartyof4]

I nose bump him!

 

[Terry Allan Hall]

No kissing...we're just good friends.

 

[Eweezyfosheezy]

I love all my guys and gals but I cant kiss them, its just gross.

 

[MechanicMatt]

Whenever i pick my russian up i'll give her butterfly kisses and she'll poke her head out at me and bop me on the nose. Hasn't decided to try and eat me yet, but i'm sure, one day she will. Haha

 

[shayee]

Yes I sure do I love them and they are adorable

 

[CourtneyAndCarl]

Carl's a little too tiny to give any kisses to. He's FINALLY getting to the point where he'll leave his head out to let me scratch it a bit, instead of pulling it into his shell as soon as he feels my finger Baby steps, with this one.

 

[shaunmonster]

i don't because of parasites know to be on reptiles.

There are many things in this world that I love, adore, live for, whatever, without feeling the need to kiss. My tortoises are among those wonders.
