lol I've always wanted a pet turtle, I guess it wouldn't be so bad really! I couldn't call my kid "Slow" though...
You could, but you might not be giving him or her the right signals for later in life. I had a terrapin when I was younger that managed to climb out of the tank and die. I cried and cried, it was my first experience of life/death as a child and it scared the ***out of me!
And actually that memory is one of those memories that sticks with you so vividly no matter how much you grow up and still makes me sad thinking about it!
Oh god what if they climb out of their tank?! Is it bad parenting if I tape the lid shut??
And sorry for your loss. I had a snail do that and I still feel like ***. Like was i THAT bad of an owner that you had to off yourself?
