The true test of character is not how much we know how to do, but how we behave when we dont know what to do. |

That tortoise could easily have been killed by that cat, or mutilated, the loss of an eye or septacaemia from the cats claws being not in the least funny, and a good bite from the tortoise could remove a cats nose or toe. Funny at first, but less so the more you see it. |
