Ask Turtle Wife!

Turtlewife Anita Salzberg

Have a question about how to live with a turtle-obsessed mate?  Just fill in the form below and ask your question.  I'll answer by e-mail and post selected questions and answers to this Web site.

Tell us about your significant other's funniest turtle-related antics.  Take a look at the some of the following responses to the statement, then include your response in the form below.  Or, feel free to send in a longer story by e-mailing it directly to .  We'll post the best/funniest additions and “turtle wife tales.”

You know your significant other is a turtle lover when —

  • She buys the freshest greens and choicest cuts of meat not for the family, but for her turtles.

  • Your kids can't understand why everyone doesn't keep turtles in the basement.

  • He hooks up the TV in the backyard with a 24-foot extension cord so that he can watch the ballgame and the turtles at the same time.

For the non-turtle challenged:

Does your significant other partake of an unusual non-turtle-related hobby?  Tell us about her/his hobby that drives you crazy.  If suitable, we'll reprint your story on this Web site, edited, if necessary, for content and length.  Just e-mail your story to .
