00:27 when an extrovert is the first thing an introvert sees in the morning.😅
in* the morning, will crawl back into my home once fixed... /🐢|🏠 😉
That one dude at work to everyone at 5am
"OK, here comes Seam. Everyone stay calm, talk softly and do not make eye contact. If you do, he'll wait 'til we fall asleep....and..well, just stay calm." LOL.
I love how happily bewildered he looked when he received all those balls. Looking around at them in wonder.
He’s thinking “food” and “females”.
I dunno, he looks pissed as usual xD Well reading animals has never been my thing.
The turtle is locked up all by hisself. Imprisoned people get grumpy from being locked up alone too. Set him free in nature. He can meet his fellow turtles there ans socialize with his own kind.
I have a tortoise myself, she isn't grumpy. She's just sassy.... and a teenager
Just wait till it gets older.
I worked at an animal sanctuary for a few years, and we had a handful of sulcata tortoises very similar to Seamus. Theyre definetly intersting animals, and can be aggressive and very destructive if left to their own devices for too long. Most of the sulcatas we had there ended up being forfeited to the sanctuary due to folks pirchasing them as pets when they were very young. At birth, theyre only about the size of a saucer, but grow exponentially and can live up to a hundred years or more with proper care. People were usually told that they would only grow to be about the size of a large platter, only for them to surpass that size within a few years. Buying one of these critters is a lifetime commitment that will likely be passed down to your children, and even possibly their children. Its not like having a dog or cat that lives a maximum of fifteen to twenty years. They can also be dangerous to handle; theyre very heavy, and require several people to lift and move. We used the slings and dollies that furniture movers use, and even then it took a minimum of two strong people to move them. The spurs on the backs of their legs are also potentially dangerous; getting your hand or fingers caught behind them can easily break bones and cause painful crushing injuries. We were told to never put our hands or feet behind their legs to prevent such instances. They also have a staggering amount of bite force, especially for an herbivore. Should you agitate one and irritate it to the point of biting, it can easily tear into bone and skin. Another big reason we had so many sulcatas being forfeited was due to their immense skill at digging holes; a motivated sulcata can dig a hole big enough to fit themselves into within an hour, and can construct tunnels several feet wide and twice as deep within less than a day or so. Moral of the story is that if you want an exotic pet, make sure you educate yourself as much as you can before purchasing one, and make sure you and your family is equipped to feed and care for them.
Thank you for great info!
Thanks for taking over his care! I noticed he was smiling!
I saw that too!! Sooo sweet 🥰
i aspire to this level of contemptuous indifference
He's like a sitcom chracter! Talk about coming out of one’s shell! And what a beautiful shell he has. Thanks so much for sharing. Cheers!
lol....he was overwhelmed with so many balls to choose from...thank gawd Seamus has a loving home
OMG, I ❤❤❤ THAT LITTLE WRECKING-BALL!!🐢💓🏀
When everybody's asleep, the Foot Clan hides the ball from Seamus 🥷
So glad he’s building a bond with you, I’m sure that transition was not easy for him. Thank you for caring for him so well❤
I love this tortoise energy! He wakes up every morning and chooses mayhem.
Hats off. Working to try to understand a tortoise brain.
I was under the impression tortoises and turtles moved slowly. Seam moves quick.
The tortoise did beat the hare 🐢💨
Oh yeah, they can hustle! They can be super quick (when they want to be) 😄
Smaller tortoises and turtles can climb too. Bigger ones try to but aren’t quite as adept as say a Russian tortoise. Tortoises are excellent escape artists. They can dig, climb, rearrange furniture, bulldoze through whatever is in their way, open sliding doors and refrigerators… mine turned a lamp stand into a catapult and her heat lamp almost set fire to the wood floor. They really are magical creatures.
@@sarina76667 oh my! 😅😯 But you're exactly right... They're curious creative bulldozers that require supervision if there's anything they can get into. My giant 100 lb tort actually tried climbing the stairs to our back deck today!! 🤦🏼 Aye. I'm constantly having to "tort-proof" everything in our yard... It never ends. It's a good thing he's so cute!! 💕
Ninja tortoise
I love turtles. A tortoise can be your friend for a really long time too.
by far the fastest tortoise i've ever seen
Niet dus..MIJN TOMMIE😏🐢
He’s an adorable tortoise. Such personality!
Grumpy tortoise. Sign me up.
importantly, not the snapping kind
Great example of unconditional love & so much patience by his new family...Blessings!!!
Sulcata tortoises are very social. I have a female, her name is Bob, she’s 20 years old. She’s named after an imaginary turtle that my grandson used to have 🙃when he was a young toddler.
How old is the little guy? He will probably outlive his owners. Maybe that already happened. Could be the reason he was grumpie, or griefing. Nice to see he turned it around 😅
He's a cutie
Lol, he's just too cute and cracks me up! Basketballs are his world and that's all he cares about.❤❤
Do you just think that the tortoise needs stimulation items, something to do to move to manipulate, and it seems like it's angry but it's not?
He's a male and has a lot of testosterone but you don't want to breed them so that's why he likes baseballs he humps them and the dark tan one looks like a tortoise.
He will be a great NBA player in his next life 😊
Grumpy tortoise probobly got tired of everyone asking him how many licks it takes to get to the tootsie roll ceneter of a tootsie pop
Bonjour. Quelle chance vous avez🤩🤩🤩🤩
Je rêve d avoir une tortue de terre. J en avais une lorsque j etais petite.
Ma Rosalie...je ne l oublie pas. Je trouve ça gééénial le mal que vous vous donnez pour lui.
Il a bien de la chance de vous avoir.🙂
I love tortoises. Look after him
Thanks dodo for always making my day better ❤️
He’s adorable & he was smiling when he saw although different colored basketballs his new mom bought him❤
You should take him to the VET to make sure he's ok
He realized he was imprisoned.
Seamus is a baller. 😎
I have never seen such an active and playful turtle before!
Que hermosa tortuga gigante, verla jugar con una pelota es sorprendente y me alegra que se lleve bien con la señora.
There seems to be a possibility that he mistook the ball for a turtle. I wish he had another turtle friend with him 🥲😅😻
Yeah, I was thinking he needs a companion too
Seamus is so adorable, and huge! This is so rare and nice! Love Seam and the basketballs. 😃
What a cool mom ❤❤❤❤❤
I hope he always finds the love he needs. ❤
I've never seen a tortoise move so much, must be happy
So cute!
He runs fast!
Wow, taking on a giant guy like that from a family member? that's a huge ask, Jessica, and you did it with patience, love and style. Thank you for giving Seam a great life!
Absolutely agree! I definitely see why the Aunt entrusted Seam into her custody. Also, want to acknowledge the husband's investment of doing some research on tortoises.
He the real punisher! He don't care!
! Don't mess with him.
0:50 That transition was perfect
I want more Seamus in my life, this is the best thing ever.
I love everything about this lady.
Nice to meet you grandpa tortoise 😁🐢
Once you said his owner flew the coop, it all made sense. He was like a teenager whose parent died...of course he was going to act out. Bravo for caring enough to figure him out. He was mourning a serious loss.
“Are you coming out of your house?” Tortoise ‘Not anymore.’
😂☠️ It's so funny how he knock the dude down, I hope he's ok. I keep watching that part several times n can't stop laughing. Seam just ram into anyone n anything, he's cute.
2:38 I got red eared slider turtles, they love yellow and are scared of blue.
Tortoises can be so sweet. Mine acts like a dog and follows me around all the time
Taking Ball is Life to another level
My tortoise is called Daniel Craig, he's only little. 9 years old September LOVE HIM LOADS
They ram through things like an Abram Tank 😂😂♥️♥️♥️
Grumpasaurus is just the best Jurassic name ever
He's adorable. A real sports mad tortoise 😅🏀🧡
Absolutely Precious 🐢❤
Adorable 😊. Btw, that turtle has the least pyramiding I’ve seen online. Must’ve lived a very good lifestyle and diet all his life.
It's a good thing that he doesn't have teeth. And he is quick.😂
But he has a beak and it’s shaper
"Out of the way, I'm a steam tank!"
"Now I'm a basketball player...."
Watch out, that's a big Tortoise. He'll take U out. Cool video.
He wasn't grumpy, he was just playing bulldozer. lol
Seamus has the ball handling skills of Michael Jordan and a Greek God. lol. Seamus shod
Ulsan replace Lebron. At least he doesn’t flop. Lmao. Great vid
Thats a big version of my Myrtle.🐢🐢🐢🐢😂😂
Thank you for taking care of Seamus after your a-hole of a mother abandoned him. Pets are a responsibility. You've worked hard to gain his trust. Wonderful.
I remember folks who inherited a parrot when a mother died. Didn't blame the mother for that. They were scared and that freaked out the bird. I finally talked them into giving him to a rescue org and he got to spend time with other parrots and with people who understood him.
The long lived pets are a big, big responsibility and people have to prepare for them.
yeah fuk their aunt for wanting to move to colorodo wat a bich
@@jac6548lol
Why are you jumping to conclusions? We don't know why the mother had to move. Maybe it wasn't a choice but a necessary move. I've had to rehome previous pets due to circumstances beyond my control and wasn't able to take them with me.
@@JaCoCopThe woman said her mother moved to be closer to snow. Did you not listen? If the daughter wasn't able to take care of the tortoise, who knows what would have happened? I've rescued cats from shelters over many years. Few were dropped off, most were just dumped and found.
@@JaCoCop
Oh yeah? What were those circumstances? My animals are my beloved CHILDREN - and last I checked, we don't "rehome" our children!
YOU ARE A GOOD PERSON AN ITS GOOD TO SEE
I think I’m in love! 😍
She has a cute voice. Love that she didn't give up.
Get him another tortoise for some company, I truly believe that'd make a huge difference. Also, the owner sounds like Nicole Sullivan (Holly from The King of Queens 😆)
Ha Ha! I love this tortoise.
he needs a hardshell lady friend to release that frustration in prob.
Está muy bonita la tortuga 🐢
Tortoise not Turtle
@@lathafalls7675 She used the word Tortuga, which in Spanish means both tortoise and turtle. If anything the translation wasn't actually wrong, but just slightly off, since it was a tortoise that was originally the subject of the conversation.
Thanks, this was so funny!!!! Share some more
Thats more like it😄
He’s cute.
Such a cool pet, I wish we could have them in Australia, I totally would have one or two.
Can’t have nothing over there,huh? Im glad I live where I can keep exotic pets without too much government control!
He needs a Tortoise Friend! Maybe another Rescue? 💕
He's practicing for his basketball scholarship to the Maryland Terrapins
I think he needs a tortoise friend.
You guys are awesome am Seam is funny as heck!🤩
Perhaps if you do not give him caffeine he won't be irritable? 🥰
That’s awesome
So cute:)
He’s a mood 😂
He’s got his balls back haha
He's cute
He needs a friend of his own species.
And olso the turtle is getting to like his owner by the basketball
❤
❤❤❤
She has the voice of a cartoon character. Should seriously do some voice over work for an animated children’s show.
Why am I crying
Because you're a mess. Get it together, gooneybird.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Woah, what's the name of that shell part under Seam's head? It looks like he has a built-in snowplow!
❤❤
Him and tiptoe need to meet
