that is what happened to my sweet Anna the other day. Took her out and for the first time she really got angry at me and didnt want to be touched and did not want to go back in. I put her in the trampoline, she wanted down and I wouldnt let her, building and outside cage and soon, hope I can get her in when night falls.

:Today was hot and sunny here, so I took Lizard outside for his first dose of REAL SUN for the year -- and it turned him into a wild man! I didn't have too much time, so I just took him out in the yard. At first he was very well behaved, and sat on my shoulder while I walked around. He let the neighbor pet him. All very nice. Then he started to climb down to the ground. Well, I wasn't about to let him go free outside, so of course I stopped him. He started croc rolling, tail-whipping, and gaping his mouth. I had to wrestle him and cover him with a towel (which I had brought along just for that purpose) to get him still enough so I could carry him back inside. Could hear him hissing from under the towel, but he wasn't trying to get loose anymore. Once back inside he was nice and calm, like usual...

:Ah, the wonders of natural sunlight for my sweet Lizzy-boy! *rolls eyes*
