Some questions about pet turtles? General Dog Discussions
I have 1 dog right now. I love cats but I'm allergic to them. I have two boys. ages 3 and 8. They are wanting for us to bring a new pet into the family. I know I don't want another dog right now, allergic to cats, We've tryed fish but they always die and get white growths on them for some reason, We've tryed hampsters and OH my how smelly their cages are after you go a day w/o cleaning it, So I was thinking maybe a small turtle? So here are some questions. Are turtles hard to look after? Do they live under water or need water and a way to get out of the water? Does the tank they are in set up mold and mildew fast? Is it hard (or gorss) cleaning out their tank? What is the good reasons for a pet turtle, and what are the bad things about them? Do yuo think a turtle would be a good pet for two boys 3 and 8 yrs.? if so why? if not why... and what pet would? I know! Lots' of questions I have for you! If yuo take your time to answer thank you soooo much!
