    I love how completely cool and casual the cat is about the entire situation. Like it’s just up to date with the latest lizard-tongue-piercing trend, and it’s a little thing called fashion, you wouldn’t understand.

      You joke, but as a kid in Texas, we would catch anoles like this little guy and hold them up to our ear lobe until they bit down so they’d become little earrings. They’d hang on for what seemed like ages, and we thought it was hilarious.

      A lizard of that size probably doesn’t have that strong of a bite

      I would catch Italian wall lizards in highschool and when they bite down on your finger it’s not much more pressure than a paperclip (not the black binder clips)

    Is that… a corgi style cat breed? Feel bad for the poor thing. Short legs will severely hamper its ability to jump.

        I think this one is a regular cat who is still crouched down from sniffing its stylish accessory. It just looks like it’s a fully standing Munchkin because of the perspective, diffuse lighting and floof ruffles on the shoulderblades that are very slightly out of frame. The curve top right looks like it might be its left hip.

        Also wishful thinking. I hope the lizard went on to lead a long and fulfilling life too, for what it’s worth.
