    actually... betty is more than just a pet.... she's my fiance, but that's a long, frustrating, story!

    Nice turtle! :D We're not allowed to keep turtles as pets here unless we suffer from strong allergies.

    Droopy... I gotta ask.

    What's the connection between turtle and allergies?

    They don't give you any. :D

    We've got a very strict law on what's allowed to keep as a pet and what's not. Most children have furry pets. Those with fur allergies can apply for permission to keep turtles.
