Oh, yes! I usually have the two cats and the turtle underfoot when I'm in the kitchen.

The other day, I was working in the kitchen and the three of them were right next to me on the floor. Well, Yertle the turtle decided to try and take a bite out of Elvis' tail. I had never seen him do that before; he's not the kind of turtle that snaps. Anyway, Elvis jumped about 3 feet in the air with Yertle attached to his tail! When he finally flipped his tail, Yertle let go and ended up upside-down, sliding across the kitchen floor on his back. It was one of the funniest things I have ever seen and, after making sure that Elvis' tail was not hurt, I sat on the floor and had one of the best laughs of my life. I only wish I had a video camera. Words cannot describe...
