Hi everyone
Just wanted to take a min to say hello and introduce you to Raphael, my Greek Tortoise. He will be 2 yrs old in July. Last year was the 1st time that tortoise were legal to have as pets in Norway since the 1970s unless you had a medical reason (allergic to dogs or whatnot) and you needed to fill in all kinds of paperwork to have them and get approval.
We are planning on building a tortoise table for him so that he will have more room roam and add things to make it more interesting for him. He has no problem getting in and out of the water bowl and I will be getting him a new stone to eat off, but haven't had a chance yet.
Raphael is not afraid of Sassy our standard poodle (she is wearing a bodysuit in the last pic since she had surgery 1 1/2 weeks ago). Of course we always supervise them together and he is in general on a table or us when they meet and greet.
