Beautiful cats

Tori is adorable! I love dogs. That second picture reminds me of George Carlin's skit on dogs, "Oh please, Daddy... just one.... more..... treat"

Jimmy, that's cool that you're thinking of getting another lizard. A mistake that I made with my first lizards (ehem... my 'sons' first lizards.. hehe), which were a gecko and anoles was that I didn't get a UVB light for them. The lights cost quite a bit but they just die without them (especially if they are basking lizards... nocturnal ones may be able to do without). Bearded Dragons are awesome. I'm hooked

... and also I would be sure that they are captive bred (CB) and not wild harvested. I think that may be why anoles die so easy. It's pretty difficult to take a wild creature and raise it... much better to start with captive bred. I got mine from a breeder this time too... the pet store animals can be 'iffy' to say the least and I was disgusted that I wasn't given the appropriate information to keep the first lizards alive.
