Grandmother Takes Pet Giant Tortoise for Walks around Seaside Town

Other

I have seen some weird animals being being taken for a walk in the past , pot bellied pigs and even ferrets

Of course there are the normal dogs, even cats on a leash , i spotted one the other day

But i must admit this is the first giant tortoise i have seen going for walkies

The poor lady was recovering from cancer so she was looking for an animal to keep her company during her convalescence

So she spotted Mr Miyagi , and she hasn't looked back since , only to check he is still following her , lol

The problem is he might live to 120 years plus, so she has had to set up a trust fund for anyone willing to take over from her in later years

And of course that person will need a lot of patience , that walk could last a few hours at a snails pace

Oh such a lovey article to read this morning, thank you. I wonder how the tortoise copes in winter.

Love it. Love how weird and mental people are. I've seen people walk ferrets and cats before not a tortoise.
