Crush is our South American Red-Footed Tortoise that my hubby got me last year for my birthday.
(If you want to read about my excitement in getting him last year click here!)
We ended up getting him a month before my birthday since that is when he came into the pet shop and I always wanted a tortoise, have no clue why I did. Today he seems happy, as happy as a tortoise can seem, it's not like a dog that wags his tail when he is happy! Lol! He loves his fruit and veggies, tomatoes seem to be his favorite along with some romaine lettuce. He does not care for squash and that's ok we don't like it ether! Lol! I do need to measure him to see how much he has (or has not) grown this year. It doesn't seem like much but than again they grow pretty slowly.
As a pet he is pretty easy going and a joy to watch as he munches on clovers in the yard! A tortoise is not a pet for you if you want a snuggly soft affectionate pet but if you want someone low key, slow, and full of wonder and mystery than I do recommend a tortoise.
