Loving the thread 😄

As for skinks  pfft !!  How about a goanna ?? 😐

Yes, a GOANNA !!

Last week OH was in town so I was having a lovely peaceful time reading etc when pandemonium broke out.  Fatcatruby had a goanna in the kitchen chasing it around and under the table,chairs, skittering all over the place.

I'm thinking, "please don't chase it into the bathroom"....so ofcourse that's what happened.  I had to catch both cats and put them in the loungeroom and shut the door because they wanted to "help", then grab a towel and the long bbq tongs to try and grab the thing !!

ruby had chased it into the corner of the room and it wasn't very happy and everytime I tried to grab it with the tongs, the tongs just slipped off !!  In the end I used the towel to sort of swish it and finally it turned and ran out into the kitchen but then went to the other end and under my computer desk then up the back of it amongst all the wires.  I had to grab it by the tail and pull it down then drag it out the door (while keeping the towel in front of me in case it tried to climb up me) !!

OH gets home a little later asking if I'd had a nice relaxing time reading 😐

Both cats were kept amused for hours sniffing and smelling everywhere the goanna had been.
