Maybe I ought to take a camera with me....

This morning when I was cleaning litterboxes, Calypso the cat was doing the ususal morning crazies, but then I notice that she was actually chasing something.
In the water dish was a gecko (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediterranean_house_gecko) staring back at me. Took the whole thing outside telling it I would keep it safe from big furry monsters, and poured the contents out. Not quite sure how little gecko got in, as Calypso does have a habit of bringing in her interactive toys and then loosing them. At least this one was released alive.

Good thing I'm not squeamish. I save lizards almost every other day from her. Heeere lizard lizard lizard....
