Good Morning from Gizmo!
This is how Gizmo said good morning to me a few days ago, popped his head out from under his rock hide and asked me where his breakfast was LOL!
He's really starting to show his personality (yes, reptiles DO have personalities!) He doesn't like to be held, but will let us pet him in his enclosure and hand feed him. He loves to sit and listen if we talk to him, and he likes to stare down the cats when they're in his room also.
So... Good morning to everyone from Gizmo the Uro

Andi! I don't know how you do it! Although he's cute, I'm just not a lizard keeper!
BTW....say hi to Gizmo from me....this is as close as I'll get to him. Thank heavens!

Nope, no girlfriend I've learned that in the wild they're solitary and only get together to do the "lizard dance" in the spring, then go their separate ways again. Putting two in the same enclosure is risky because they can either get along great or fight to death, and I'm not willing to take that chance.
I'm really hoping that my daughter will get tired of her small bedroom getting so hot from his heat lights and she'll want to move Gizmo out of her room to downstairs where we can all see more of him. Some day... Since she paid for him, for now he's in her room

Gizmo looks cute, but no reptiles in my house, with or without feathers
In the last year you have gone for one spoiled cat to 3 cats, unknown if newest are spoiled, and one reptile. And your DH thought a dog was too much trouble?

LOL! You forgot to add in the aquarium frog and the two hamsters Really, I never thought I'd like reptiles but Gizmo is definitely changing my mind. Even my DH who HATES reptiles (especially snakes) can be caught hand-feeding Gizmo a flower or sitting in there talking to him.
Oh, yeah, the boy cats are also super-spoiled of course! We're in the process of building them an outdoor enclosure so they can go outside but still be contained, complete with ramps, platforms and shelves, a climbing log for Monkey, and a hammock. Spoiled? Nah....

The reptile is spoiled also.
New background is very nice.
I need to be reborn as a pet in your house.
