Lewie here, He weighs about 25lbs but there ain't an ounce of fat on him! He is all cat. We say he is our perpetually pissed off pussy cat though lol We got him as an adult... For the first five years of his life he was King Lewis, the only pet and so he was used to all the attention etc. Now he has a zoo to contend with lol But he is getting better, he doesn't full out attack Shade or Piggy anymore... just growls at them. Yes growl not hiss lol he is a tiger. Good mouser though, sits in the kitchen n waits (I purposely drop bread crumbs in between the cupboards n the stove) He does a good job.

100_0078.jpgHe is just hunched here, so he looks fat, but he actually could stand to gain weight, I think he is too skinny. (When he is standing)

Now at 11 lbs Tank continues to mature. Notice how dark some of his skin is turning.
He is still as pleasant as can be. A lot of fun to be around.
His appetite is increasing as he ate a whole boneless pork chop for dinner the other night.
Hoping for 20+ lbs by years end.

tank is awesome! i was just looking at your youtube video with him. does he spend a lot of time in the water? i thought snappers needed water constantly. i don't know much about them, but tank makes me wanna get one! unfortunately i have cats and dogs, so i wouldn't be able to let him roam around the house. i'd be afraid it'd eat them, haha! i like how he's not aggressive. surely he could do some serious damage if he decided to bite, yea? how old is he? what does he usually eat? and how often?

Tank is 3 years old. He spends a few hours a day in his water. He gets a drink, eats and uses the bathroom in his water.
Most of his sleep time is spent outside the water. As I type he's on the couch sleeping in a comforter.
I think he could do a lot of damage if he were to bite. He gets along well with the dogs.
Keep in mind he is a special turtle as most snapping turtles don't do well in these situations.
As a rule they are solitary and shy away from human contact.
Tank is just the opposite. He seeks out our company and time.

thats very crazy. i have spent alot of time catching snappers. and a snapper pulled out of the water, is not a happy critter.

We consider ourselves very blessed to have Tank in our family.
Everyday is an adventure.
