When deciding to buy a pet people usually go for a dog or a cat or something similar. Something that you can play with, something that is cute and friendly. These pets then become dear members of the families. They are with them in the good times, in the bad times. They see their owner´s children grow up…

And their owners would never ever change them. The same thing happened in Tokyo. An owner of sulcata occasionally walks his tortoise around the town. An elderly man must be one of the most patient pet-walker. See how they enjoy their walks.
