it's alive!

So--about a week ago? The cats knocked the lid off the 40 gallon tank that houses our Nile monitor, Lando, and he got out, and we kind of gave up looking for him. He's about two feet long right now, mostly all tail. I resigned myself to finding a dried up lizard carcass somewhere in the house, but tonight! Tonight, he showed up out of nowhere, chasing Millie! And then Roxy cornered him in an overturned trashcan and he bit her in the nose. But all is well! We really figured he was gone for good, because he needs to be in constant heat and it's been really cold in the house lately. I'm not really fond of him, but I'm glad he's not dead somewhere in my house. Huzzah!

One of my cats once killed one of my fish.

Not in like an ate it kind of way, but it was some sort of rare exotic fish and it needed a special climate or something and the cat unplugged the thing that keeps the climate special. Anyway we had to bury it because it was huge and couldn't be flushed down the toilet.

Your story is easy to relate to.

what is it with cats?! Maude used to unplug the heating pad for our old bearded dragon. It's like they have to be doing something bad at all times.
