Hi,
Tonight; the 'realization struck'......global warming is on:(
Living on the Gold Coast of Australia, in a warm sub-tropical climate was
always great; however, as of lately, we live in the tropics.
The great part of it is...geckos! the lovely, friendly color-changing little
lizard that climbs walls vertically with the help of suckers on it's feet.
Balinese truly worship Geckos (I remember seeing hundreds of them on a
ceiling of a restaurant in Legian). I also give them a truly regal
treatment; not only a good omen; they also eat spiders en mass!

Tonight, the first gecko actually ventured inside of my house; Xena was
about to kill it when I noticed what was going on while I was watching a
movie. Never seen a good size gecko inside my house as yet and Xena was
about to get it!
It wasn't easy to catch the wriggling, fighting 15.5 LB lean mean machine
that she is. I had to try twice. Finally locked her in the guest toilet
downstairs, not understanding what was a difference between catching a giant
cockroach and a gecko;  then, getting hold of a hiding gecko, getting it
into my palm without any physical damage, holding it while I was fumbling
for keys; finally releasing gecko onto my front porch outside. Uuuugh! Done!
it run off., stressed, but unharmed.
Next thing ; releasing equally stressed Xena from the toilet. She doesn't
quite understand what has she done to deserve it all.
Any experiences protecting geckos from cats? I would like to hear from you,
as I may have to do it again.
Regards,
Andr0:)
