”Hello, it’s nice to meet you! My name is Tama Chan. Well, aren’t you going to shake my hand?”
Cute Turtle
“I am a four-year-old painted turtle… that’s why I’m so pretty.”

“But I am more than a pretty face. I am curious and clever and will do almost anything for a worm. I may even spash you in the face if you aren’t quick enough! I am a very sweet girl…”

“Come back and visit me soon!”
Maiah from Fairfax sent us these great pictures of Tama Chan. She told us that Tama was kept in horrible, cramped conditions as a hatchling. As a result of this neglect, she has a permanent dent in her shell. Maiah simply could not leave her there. She decided to bring Tama home for a temporary stay. Soon everyone grew to love her. (Who wouldn’t!?) Now she has a happy, healthy, and wonderful new permanent home!
Love, love the turtle hand! Let’s shake!
