Sure turtles can be blessed - we had a fish at the service. October 4th was the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals and the environment. A number of churches of all denominations offer blessings of the animals around that time. I don't attend a church, but am friends of the local Anglican priest and his family, so we go every year up the church and get the dogs blessed. It's a lovely service - we were talking about this in one of the other threads last week, but I can't remember which one.
There still may be some churches having thenm in your area - you could call around.
