Santa’s Slowest Little Helper

This photo from reader Laura H. may not be quite as timely as she intended when she sent it earlier this month, but it’s too cute to hold for next year:

This is Tabasco the therapy turtle, wearing her little Paws for Friendship vest. She was at a recent event with my husband and (therapy dog) Sebastian as well as several other more traditional therapy pets. I think she is just insanely cute!

Of course, it’s always possible that Tabasco is just taking her sweet time processing those letters to Santa. So if you didn’t get what you wanted last Christmas, well…

    She has her own personalized embroidered vest!! What’s next? She must also have business cards!

    Aw boy! That is soooo cute! A therapy turtle. In a vest. I think I’m done for the night. 🙂

    You guys should see the therapy pygmy goats, Salt and Pepper, in their little personalized vests if you want even more cute! Unfortunately, I don’t have a good picture of them. One of these days….
