Cute story Kat
I have a turtle story too.
When my dad was a kid, he had a little pet turtle. One day it seemed to have died. At least in my dad's opinion the turtle was dead because it would not come out of it's shell.
So my dad decided to give it a funeral service. He put some logs in the fireplace, placed his pet turtle on a centre log and proceeded to start a fire to cremate his dead friend. Well, as the fire heated up, I guess it startled the 'not-so-dead' turtle because out popped it's head, arms and legs. My dad tried to save the turtle but the flames were to high to reach it.
What a way to go hugh. That must have been a really bad scene.
