Emotional Support Animal or Just A Pet?

Most stores don’t allow their customers to bring their pets inside unless they’re service or emotional support animals. However, we seriously doubt this customer’s tortoise counts as either of those things. However, a tortoise is probably less bothersome for employees than a hyper puppy or anxious kitty, so we suppose this isn’t too bad. It also looks like the customer is buying some boxed cakes. Perhaps it’s the tortoise’s birthday!
