geckos have fingernails
Look at his little fingernails!!! AArrrrghhhhhh!!
The other night I trapped little Skype in a plastic food container. It was 3am and I couldn’t sleep. He was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. I played with him for a little while. Clare thinks “played with” means “tortured” and she’s probably right. In any case, I thoroughly examined his underworkings and feet. Then I let him go.
[…] And now the bad news. I walked into my apartment 30 minutes ago (7:30am) just off a plane, tired, sweaty, smelly, and needing to head straight to work. I was greeted by Skype. Not Skype the VoIP service, but Skype the gecko. Only he was laying on his back this morning, all shriveled up and scary looking. Yes, everyone, Skype is dead. […]
AAAAAAWWWWW!!! That’s terrible!
Ghecko’s are so cute! We often get little baby ones in our house, and they’re so small you can still kinda see through their skin. And if you get too close for their comfort, they puff themselves up a little bit and make a very high pitched sound at you so you’ll leave them alone. Cheeky Bastards!
Condolences on Skypie… may he find that insect garden in the sky!
