Before introducing myself, I would like to tell you how I became the Dad of 2 adorable Turtles
.I been always someone very interested in animals, and have adopted alot of cats during the years. I work in a Hotel, so the way I got introdsuced to these little guys was because some disrepectful guys bought one for Holidays, and when they did check out the left it
.I am familiar with RES, but as a rule I never buy animals. So when the left it, I decided to take care of her while trying to find a place for her somewhere.
The days passed, and I started to get more and mroe concerned about her, and to get her a nice habitat, so without realizing it I found myself spending $300.00 Bucks step by step, until I decided I could not risk Alex to have a bad place to live so I would foster him
.While all this was happening, one of our recepcionist told me his son, 7 years old has a Turtle, so I got worried because her son is a rude and disrespectful kid.
Anyway, someday later he came with his Turtle to show him mine, and I got in shock, he got the Turtle, in a glass with really cold water from a Bottle, and he kept her moving all over the place and I exploded. I told her thats not way to treat animals, that is her responsability to teach him, etc, so I asked them both, what do you want in exchange for the Turtle and the promise of never ever buying naother animal again, and the kid asked me for a remote control car (add another $50.00 US to the list lol).
So thats how I got little Magnolia, she was grey and really shy, but now after some weeks with me and Alex she is green and getting bigger and bigger!!!!
So that's the story, I am Kopi, I live in Mèxico and I am the pourd Dad of 2 beautiful sliders
.I hope with some guidance we can orient people in the Hotel, how to treat these adorable things, and to explain them they are not toys.
Here they are:
You can see they have some water letuce, their lamps, and some guppys to keep them working out
.This is Alex doing his Super Man Yoga
