We're big fans of animal puns here at Wide Open Pets. Stirring up llama drama and sharing hiss-terical snake puns is part of our identity, so what better way to celebrate the summer than with our favorite turtle puns?
Turtles don't get the same level of attention as some other house pets, given that they're small, quiet, and pretty slow-moving. What these little guys lack in speed, they make up for with their big hearts and even bigger personalities. If you've never owned a turtle, you'd be shocked to learn how warm these reptilian pets can be. (And no, that's not just the heat lamp.)
Break out your old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles toys (we know you still have them somewhere) and prepare for the best turtle puns. These puns about turtles will give even the greatest dad joke champion a run for his money. Just try not to be too shell-shocked by how silly these turtle puns sound!
