tortoise 

Fred Since we got him, we have all enjoyed watching him come out of his shell and his personality flourish. He loves having a bath and will let us scrub his shell for as long as we have time. Did you know tortoises soaking in water provides many health benefits for them including, hydration as they can absorb water through their skin and cloaca. Although he tolerates the winter months, he much prefers summer when he can soak up the natural UV rays.
