On that link there is a picture of the tortoise. I feel for it but I just found it all rather amusing, especially the picture of the tortoise.
http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage...icle981431.eceOriginally Posted by The SunA TORTOISE whose owner claims it is addicted to smoking can apparently finish a cigarette in four minutes.
Owner Li Yun from the town of Kouqian in Yongji county, said his pet was addicted to cigarettes after it started smoking smouldering butts he left lying around his garden.
He said the animal is now addicted and he has timed it smoking a cigarette in four minutes, and gets upset if he can’t smoke half a pack a day.
He said: “Whenever I smoke the tortoise lifts its head out of the water and stares at the cigarette. If I don’t let it smoke, it swims around crazily in its little pond, scratching the sides.
“The tortoise won’t stop until I give it a cigarette and it bites the butt, and you can see the tip glowing. Within four minutes the cigarette is gone.”
Tang Jingwen, deputy secretary-general of the Jilin City Animal Protection Association, said they wanted to contact Yun over his claims.
He said: “If the tortoise smokes voluntarily there is little we can do, but we want him to stop making it public.”

I like how he claimed that it became addicted. It's not as if it went a stole cigarettes from the owner, the owner must of forced one on it.
I wonder if nicotine patches would work?
Haha, fantastic. I wonder how it got 'addicted'?
He is butt sucking!
He looks pretty cute tbh and it's a cute story - He smokes a ciggy in 4 minutes is that fast/slow/normal?
This answers the question to how it got addicted
