My childhood friend, Domo

It was in the 1950's when my grandma and grandpa were celebrating their 1st wedding anniversary. My grandma wanted a Persian cat, so my grandpa went to every pet store in their town and he couldn't find any. When he got home, he handed her a box with holes in it and she knew what it was! As she looked inside she started laughing, there was a 50 year old desert turtle staring up at her. I have memories of following him around and being scared he was going to bite my toes! We all love and have grown up with Domo, and now being over 100 years old he's still healthy and a close friend :) ENJOY!
