This is my pet Tommy.  He is a red ear slider turtle.  Tommy is an aquatic turtle.

I got him in May, 2009.

The next few pictures were made the first day I had Tommy.

The next pictures were made a week after I got Tommy.

Tommy is trying to climb up the side of his "man cave".

These pictures were taken in early December, 2009.

Tommy has a basking dock.  He climbs on it to bask under his lamp.

If he doesn't do this, his shell will not be healthy.

These pictures were taken New Year's Day, 2010.

You can see how much bigger he is in my hand than he was last May, 2009.
