Not realy a domestic animal, why keep these poor creatures in a 'foreign' environment, surely this practice of keeping snakes/ lizards should be stopped. "This is purely a personal opinion, not a critiscism of anyone who keeps these fine animals, ta.";)

You'd be surprised how similar to a cat that species of lizard actually is! Some people have them walking around the house, but mine preferred his basking rock under his light.

Monitor lizards like mine actually have a hard time in the wild and have to eat rotting meat to survive, and many reptiles are kept for the sake of keeping the numbers up so they dont go extinct. Alot of care is taken to ensure their domestic habitat is as close to their natural one as possible and theyre happy healthy pets.
Its kind of like how everyone used to keep pet tortoises, but now they are more expensive fewer people keep them and people keep them properly rather than in their gardens out with the rabbits.

It's just a shame it did not have the nine lives to go with it Blazey, joking apart you can get attached to the oddest things, like dare I say it, W---s:D

I agree blazey . they are more like a domestic pet than folk realise .
Sol loves his domain but i still have to let him out for a wander around the house everyday . as soon as i go into his room he knows its time for his pampering and starts pawing at the glass . and he wont let up until hes had his cuddle then bath and a walk around for an hour the back for food and a nice evenig basking on his log .


HAHA I put some locust in for him last week and my son didnt know and came home from work and opened his door for him .. :eek::eek:omg i had a house full of locust .. all cleared now though thank god..:D

On a lighter note and off topic, we once had a goldfish that kept on growing, it got that big my uncle Solomon eat with some thick chips, he said it was a Carp not a goldfish.:D
