Jesus can humans stop bothering animals for the love of god?!! If it's not a cat or a dog it's not a pet it's a prisoner because it would leave your house if it could.

Well, what appeals to you about the area? The surrounding area is highways and a mall. Are you going to be working around there and trying to avoid a long commute?

I'm not sure if it's connected to a few masjids or not. The guy at Berkley and Pulaski in Germantown sells turtles and lizards in spring and summer. He also sells juice. I think he's part of the masjid on Germantown ave.

It kinda has the feel of a (really cool) small town, but it’s in walking distance of Center City. Best of both worlds, in my opinion. I love it.

I bought two off of the street a year ago. Turns out they need a ridiculous amount of care, and they are expensive to own. One already needed a surgery 🙄. I wonder if any of the other babies have survived from that day.

I bought mine for 20$ at the Cecil b stop in 2012, it came with a little plastic tank with a palm tree. Now I have a 10 year old turtle and a 90 gallon tank that requires regular maintenance. They’re a really big commitment, I did not expect this turtle to live 4 months let alone 10 years.

El Mezcal Cantina has party space on second floor. I’m guessing it would be really reasonably priced.

I feel like when they were all the rage there was always someone hawking them at intersections or bursting into chinese takeout joints with them

My grandma used to have one in her backyard. She used to own an acre of land and the turtle would show up every so often and thrive by itself.

At one point my dorm room had a turtle tank with 2 turtles. As other people gave up their subway purchased turtles that number grew to 7 turtles. They lived for 8-10 years

All pets are commitments!

Dont buy turtles. They can live 20+ years, require a large tank, heating lamps, water heaters, food, filters for cleaning. My sister bought me two as a gift for Christmas 10 years ago. I have one bc the survivor killed the other. These are not pets they are commitments
