Gotta get ’em while they’re babies
This is the first time in my life, since I was a toddler, that I have no pets. God knows I miss the one’s I’ve had. Including my iguana, whom I had for 17 years.
Anyhow, this lizard thought he was a mammal, ’cause that’s how he was raised. He did everything but purr. All right, he didn’t fetch, either. But where we were, that’s where he wanted to be; and he was awfully good companionship.
Yes, I know a lot of people have had grouchy mean iguanas who’d bite you as soon as look at you. But it’s all in the way they’re raised.
Sort of like people.
