Your little leopard baby is really pretty. I have one about 4 years old, but he's quite a bit darker. I like the light ones like yours. And you're doing a good job of keeping his/her carapace nice and smooth. My sister's cat gets along with the tortoise babies too. But my house cat is not used to seeing other creatures in her territory and she'd really like to be able to reach the little red ear turtle that I rescued. Good thing for the turtle he's in water. She (the cat) doesn't like getting her feet wet! Thanks for sharing your pictures with us. They're great!
This is french fry. She has been found sleeping - under the tortoises basking light, under the RES basking light and in the sunny window on top of the RES tank. Oh and on my bed and on my husbands chair. She pretty much ignores the turtles and torts but tries to catch the goldfish through the glass. Funny to watch.
