A Turtles Halloween Treat

For our turtle Lilly we cleaned out her tank so that she would have some very nice water to swim in. We needed to do it anyways but tonight seemed like a perfect time to do it as we were waiting for everyone to get ready to go trick or treating. Normally we let Lilly walk around the room so that she can get some special exercise but today we made a little turtle playpen for her out of Hopes dog food container and some of Michael’s old college books. At least it worked well enough to keep her inside.She is trying to use her log to see above the obstacles so that she can see the progression of the cleaning of her tank. I think that she also wanted to see Matty because he was in the room and she really loves him.Now she is just sitting on her log demanding to have her sunning light. Her light bulb went out today so she is going to be doing a lot of sunning tonight. Lilly is funny in that when she wants her light on she will get on top of her log and wait for you to turn it on. At least now her tank is clean and she can enjoy the treat that she got on Halloween. We sure do have some very interesting pets.
