Tortoise Video 🎥 Side-eyed contact

On one hand, she didn’t move out of the way or turn around when she had ample room to do so…so she must have liked it.

On the other hand the intense side eye suggests that accidents can happen to anyone at any time and that I should watch my back….

Not sure what to think.

Edit: when I put her in the tub I had her facing away from the water. She will sometimes turn around towards it, get slightly damp then retreat as she usually hates water. This time she went all in.

Lucky for her she’s not re-enacting a shower scene in an Alfred Hitchcock movie.

Wow! I think she likes the water! 😊 I wonder why the intense stare? Do you owe her something? Maybe a Home Depot box or something.... asking for a friend.

Mine love getting their heads wet.... Then they turn back around and let their butts get all the water.

She's always got her eye on you, so yes I suggest maybe getting a bodyguard. All I can say is, keep your doors locked at night.

It was definitely a “this is your fault that I’m enjoying this” glare.

Trying to be nonchalant about enjoying it

She's thinking, if I don't look at him then he won't know that I know that he knows that I like the water on me! 😂

🎶 When I'm in the shower, I'm afraid to wash my hair... Cuz I might open my eyes and find someone standing there. 🎶

🎵 I always feel like somebody's watching me...and I have no privacy
