I have missed these two little tortoise terrors too much this week as Iāve been on night shifts and only seen them fleetingly - when I get home I will go in to see them, have a little tortee chat, feed them some fresh leafy veggies or a few pellets (junk food delight), top up their water, give Gamera a little tortee hug as Tortilla is less toleratingš.
They are by far a fantastic resource for the mind and wellbeing post and pre nights as they help me to relax, unwind, remove any busy-headedness from within (required when working shifts in healthcareš). So after I fed them this morning, I had them crawling next to me, holding Gamera close to my face and neck I was talking with Alfie about whether Gamera is a girl or boy, considering her shorter thickened and wide butt-tail as Iād noticed it was abit stubbier than usual (thinking āohh my tortoise is quick to matureāš), as Alfie shouts āitās poo mum, the reason itās stubby is because itās got poo in it!ā, whilst laughing, noticing his/her widening tail. I quickly put Gamera back in his house where he promptly pooped a massive dark green one out! Close call, looks more like a male pointy tail now tbh.
Here are 2 Gamera-selfies, I hope you like š
