1. On Saturday I decided it was time to clean turtle's tank.
2. Usually I let Chips wander around the apartment when I do.
3. Later on, as I was filling the tank with fresh water, I heard a thump in my bedroom.
4. Only to find turtle looking at itself in the mirror, and trying to walk toward itself. I think he was freaking out.
5. A few seconds later, he walked away, only to turn around walk up to the mirror and gaze at himself once more.
6. Unless the turtle sees somewhat of a reflection in his tank, I think, this may be the first time, in the 20 yrs I have owned him, that he has seen himself, and that I have seen him actually doing this! LOL

Date: 2011-12-02 06:58 am (UTC)Both dog and tortoise were fascinated with each other, chasing each other around in circles, but for VERY different reasons.
The dog thought it was a game.
The tortoise, however, had a raging, dripping hardon.
It took me a good fifteen minutes to stop laughing long enough to explain to all concerned what was so funny.
I also suggested that perhaps the dog and tortoise shouldn't be allowed to nap together, lest we end up with a tortoise-raped chihuahua.
