Opie has become a budding herpetologist. For the past several days, out patio has been Lizard Central. I don't know what's attracting them to out house but, its OK by me - they eat bugs. These skittering little critters have become a source of great fascination, for Opie. Yesterday, one got right up against the screen door and Opie went ballistic! He WANTED that lizard! Good thing that its a security mesh - he'd have gone right through it. There is a tiny gap, underneath and woe betide the reptile that ventures into the house. It will, probably, become an Opie snack. If he's anything like other cats, that I've had, I'll find lizard parts, scattered around the kitchen. They, always, seemed to just eat the legs and tails and leave the dismembered corpse, for me. Oh, well, I've cleaned up worse messes.
