Let me introduce Trevor, possibly the greatest tortoise on earth...if "greatest" actually means most spoiled! Having a diet of bagged washed salad, and living in an 120sq ft heated enclosure, with underfloor heating, artificial sun and an adventure play ground. But he's so cute, I just can't say no!
