He proved me wrong about his being a sorry excuse for a bug/mouse/lizard catcher.
When I came home for lunch he was sitting in the middle of the living room making an odd meowing sound, and I noticed something under his paw. A lizard. This was the second one to find its way inside in a couple of weeks. The first, I woke one morning to find its little silhouette inside my bedroom curtains. 😳
Anyway, kitty kept lifting his paw up and letting it run around so he could chase it and then catch it under his paw again. He held the intruder down until I was able to catch and release it outside using a plastic cup. Teamwork.
The lizard didn’t seem to be injured. Hopefully he will tell all of his little buddies to keep out!
