My tortoise is called Shelby, she is a girl she is only 1 year old she was born on the 30th of June and i love her dearly she never hurts a soul she loves attention and people whenever people are near her cage she will knock on the glass window to get attention. One day i was cleaning out her cage and i put shelby on the carpet to run around (well walk) and when i had cleaned out her cage she had disapeared i thought she couldnt have gone far because she doesnt walk that fast and she was sat on this Boy barbies legs looking up at his face and she was admiring him it was hilarious. Also when we put her outside she was comunicating with the rabbit and playing with our rabbit she is adorable our little shelby. But the first ever day we got her she weed all over my hand and it was the best suprise ever and all she can think about is the food in her bowl. hahaha. Whenever we have a lie in and she is hungry she taps her arms on the glass to say shes hungry. Also in Shelbys cage she has a log and its quite tall, Shelby didnt care she climbed up to the top and she didnt care one bit. She is lovely as a pet but at the moment trying to get off my lap onto the laptop keyboard and she is so adorable. Hope you like the story of shelbys 1st year at our house.Shelby loves to go O.T.T. with her food, she doesnt care what she eats, i was in my bed eating this Mr Kiplings soft cake shelby came out my arms and took a big bite out of MY cake, also she has grapes, sweetcorn, tuna, Cake, Kiwi. and more and loves it all. She isnt even supposed to eat it but she does. Shelby is a hermans tortoise. And she is one of a kind!!!
