I moved Mr Godzilla to a new cage and since then he is in a very bad mood.The new cage is much bigger and beautiful than the old one but but he didnt like it, and Mr Godzilla is always right!!!

So he is not eating , not talking to me and when I come close to him he turns his back on me.Or closes his eyes to pretend I dont exist!!Then yesterday to make him happy I took him in my arms for a walk around the house.He was calm and gentle.When we entered the bathroom he looked at the bath tub filled up with water 2 or 3 times and zuuupt! jumped in the water!!He didnt want to escape from me, no, he really wanted to take a bath!!

Then I decided to go to the garden.My building has a gorgeous garden , swimming pool area and play ground for children.As I dont have a leash I improvised one with Magic Twister.Its a very flexible coated wire. Its very resistant and you can tie and untie it with a twist.

At the swimming pool area a lot of children came
closer to look at Godzilla.The majority were Americans so I remembered you fellow herpers and thought those children could be yours.The children parent's came closer also to see what their children were doing and all of them-children and parents-were very interested in Godzilla (who was genly laid in my arms)and a little bit jealous because my ig was just splendid and calm and well behaved and I suppose all of them will go directly to the next pet shop to buy a baby iguana for them also!!!

: I always get asked, (which I am sure many of iguana owners do)
: "What do you get out of owning an iguana. They always scratch up your arms, why do you like them"?
: My answer, always is...."Why do you own a dog, or a cat"? My iguana is just as much of a pet/family member as my dogs and cats are". "They are very unique pets, with individual personalities, and yes they do have personalities." "And as far as the scratches go...well..that's just a "bonus"" ha ha. I went to the grocery store today and bought some fresh collards, spinach and romaine lettuce. The check-out girl said, "My, you sure eat healthy". I said, "No, those are for my iguana, the peanut butter cookies are for me"
