00:00It's Wednesday, so it means it's pet's day, that's why we have a cute, cute, cute pet with us this morning.

00:08And for us to know that, let's watch everything.

00:12For reptile lovers, it's really hard to take care of tortoises.

00:19Aside from being expensive, they are also not that demanding to take care of.

00:24But did you know that taking care of tortoises is a life commitment?

00:29Because there are some species of tortoises that can live for more than 80 years in captivity.

00:37That's why they are known as the longest living land animals in the world.

00:43Because of that, we will know how to properly take care of them

00:48and other information about this amazing pet.

00:52This Wednesday, pet's day.

00:55And now, we are joined by the tortoise owner, Maricris Goh.

00:59Chris, good morning. Welcome to Rise and Shine.

01:01Good morning.

01:03Chris, introduce us to your pet. What's his name?

01:06Hi, this is Frap.

01:09Frap?

01:10Yes. He's a baby.

01:13He's a five-year-old tortoise.

01:16Five-year-old?

01:17Yes.

01:18But he's already big.

01:19Yes.

01:20So, will he still grow?

01:21Yes.

01:22So, if you have a tortoise, this is how big it will be.

01:26Oh, wow!

01:27So, it's already big?

01:28Okay.

01:29Yes.

01:30And you said earlier that it can live up to 80, even 100 years, right?

01:35Of course.

01:36Yes.

01:37As a tortoise owner, do you have any routines?

01:40Like, do you teach him how to count?

01:42That's hard.

01:43What are the routines that you do as an owner?

01:46What are the routines that you do as an owner?

01:48One of the cute characteristics of Frap, or a tortoise, is that he knows when we're around.

01:56Oh, really?

01:57Yes.

01:58How? What's their signal?

01:59They feel that we're already at their house.

02:02So, they'll come closer.

02:04Oh, sweet.

02:05And since we have a baby at home, they grow at the same time.

02:12Yes.

02:13That's cute.

02:14They have a picture where they're still babies, and now they're playmates.

02:18Okay.

02:19And he's not harmful.

02:21So, he doesn't bite or anything.

02:24And he's super playful with our dogs.

02:27Oh, so you have another pet at your house?

02:30Yes.

02:31What are your other pets?

02:33We have Aspie, and we have Corgis.

02:36So, those are his playmates.

02:39They're so happy at their house.

02:42I didn't know Frap is such a friendly dog.

02:44Yes.

02:45He's so friendly.

02:46I mean, look at him.

02:48He can feel you.

02:49He's so cute.

02:50What do you call this?

02:52Shell.

02:53His shell.

02:54Isn't it hard?

02:56Do you moisturize it?

02:57Yes.

02:58You need to put petroleum jelly on it.

03:01Petroleum jelly.

03:02Yes, because his shell will dry.

03:04Okay.

03:05Is he like Bretman Rock?

03:07Yes.

03:08Yes, right?

03:09He has a baby brother.

03:11He looks like Bretman Rock or Lasolene Yusef.

03:14Yes.

03:15The one with the red foot.

03:16How do you take care of the tortoise?

03:18What do you feed them?

03:20The tortoise are very low-maintenance.

03:23Yes.

03:24Especially for us, we're from the province.

03:27So, we only have free tomatoes and water spinach.

03:30Okay.

03:31And our favorite is gumamela.

03:33Oh, okay.

03:34The gumamela flowers.

03:37And carabao grass.

03:39His proteins are leaves.

03:42Do you have to eat it every day?

03:44Yes.

03:45Aside from the leaves, the doctor prescribed pellets for the tortoise.

03:55Okay.

03:56For those who want to take care of a tortoise, what should they know first?

04:02We took him when he was a baby.

04:06He's this big compared to now.

04:09He's almost five times his size.

04:13So, it's like you're taking care of a baby.

04:17He needs to be incubated.

04:19Oh, so sweet.

04:20He can't get cold.

04:22Yes.

04:23And his surroundings should be clean.

04:27He should eat well.

04:30He's still a baby.

04:31He doesn't know if he can eat rocks or dirt.

04:35His water needs to be filtered.

04:37Oh, I see.

04:38Okay.

04:41Does he have a pet?

04:43That's the most challenging part of being a tortoise mom.

04:48Because the vets here are available in the province.

04:54Cats and dogs are their expertise.

04:57That's why we take him to Manila for a check-up.

05:03Which province is he from?

05:04Nueva Ecija.

05:05Oh, okay.

05:06So, you're going to Manila from Nueva Ecija?

05:09Yes.

05:10To get a check-up on Frap.

05:12Does he have a sibling?

05:14Yes.

05:15His baby brother is a red-footed tortoise.

05:20How old is he?

05:21He's the same age as Frap, but he doesn't grow up.

05:26Oh, I see.

05:27But he's also a tortoise.

05:28So, there are different kinds of tortoises.

05:31Some of them grow up, but others don't.

05:34Yes.

05:35He's still a baby.

05:36He'll grow up to be 10 times bigger.

05:39Oh, wow!

05:41I can't carry him right now.

05:43Yes.

05:44What does he do at home?

05:46Sometimes, when he can open the gate, he climbs it.

05:53Oh, really?

05:54Yes.

05:55How much does a tortoise usually cost?

05:58We bought him during the pandemic.

06:02So, we don't know how much he costs now.

06:05There were two of them back then.

06:07It was around P75,000.

06:10P75,000?

06:11Yes.

06:12At that time.

06:13So, I don't know how much he costs now.

06:16So, you started taking care of a tortoise during the pandemic?

06:19Yes.

06:20Actually, he was influenced by our mom.

06:23She adopts water turtles.

06:27In our province, there are water turtles.

06:33There's a water field.

06:35So, there are water turtles.

06:38He wants to have a tortoise.

06:42It's so cute to have a tortoise.

06:43Because you can feed him to your grandchildren.

06:46Yes.

06:47Because he doesn't eat.

06:49He doesn't eat right away.

06:50Yes.

06:52He bites me.

06:54Because I'm trying to feed him.

06:55Oh, okay.

06:56Because I'm very clingy.

06:58I'm trying to feed him treats and leaves.

07:02But he doesn't bite me.

07:04How does he react when a stranger approaches him?

07:09He hides.

07:10Oh, I see.

07:11He's very introverted and scared.

07:13You can hold his head.

07:15He might bite you.

07:17I can hold him.

07:19Oh, I see.

07:20He might get scared.

07:21He might turn his head inside.

07:24Okay.

07:25So, how can I know if he's sleeping?

07:27If he's sleeping.

07:29I can close his eyes.

07:31He's so cute.

07:33He's like a human.

07:34You're right.

07:35Right?

07:36I can close his eyes.

07:37But when he's sleeping, he's relaxed.

07:40He's not in a shell.

07:42He's hiding in a shell.

07:43Just like his head comes out.

07:44As if his head is lying down.

07:46He's very relaxed.

07:47He's really like that.

07:49I can close his eyes.

07:50He's not in a shell.

07:51You're right.

07:52Correct.

07:55Okay.

07:56So, what are your social media accounts?

07:58So, we can follow your bonding moments.

08:00We saw each other on TikTok.

08:03On my personal account.

08:05But he has an official Instagram account.

08:08It's called Bahay Aso.

08:11Our Instagram name is Bahay Aso.

08:14There.

08:15Thank you for joining us here at Rise and Shine Philippines.

08:18Next time, bring Coffee Jelly, your corgis, and Aspen.

08:24Alright.

08:25Thank you very much, Chris.

08:27And of course, Frap.

08:29He's our bonding member.

08:30He's so cute.
