    OMG Sara I laughed so hard I almost choked Eve has a habit of 'finding', in our case, baby salamanders and YES, in most cases the tail is missing She will carry it around in her mouth, drop it at our feet, then pick it up and run around with it again until one of us (usually my sweet husband ) picks it up gently and returns it to the creek below in our garden. The poor lizard 'plays dead' the entire time Eve is having her way with it

    Dear Eddie: Please be gentle with the lizard(s) and all will be fine

    P.S. Lizards drop their tails (in defense) in an attempt to get away from their attacker; I believe (please correct me if I'm wrong) the tail grows back

    Oh the world of cats What would we do without them??

    Dear Eddie, Fister says he's so envious that you have lizards to play with, but I'm glad HE doesn't bring any in! You should be nice and put Mr. Lizard back out where he belongs, it's not part of your secretary's job, you know! Hope his tail will grow back and you'll be gentle with them in the future.

    I HAVE ALWAYS BELIEVED THAT TO BE TRUE THAT THE LIZARDS TAIL WILL REGROW AS THEY USE THAT TO ESCAPE PREDATORS.
    BUT EDDIE, MY CAT BROTHER IN LAW, YOU SHOULD LIVE AND LET LIVE.

    Oh Eddie, it is so sweet of you to bring all your new friends in to meet meowmie. You have not told us yet whether you have some others stashed behind the settee.

    Our RB Fluffy always brought us lizards - with and without tails.


    Yes, I do believe the tails grow back - providing the lizard is still alive.....


    As creepy as it was........ I sure do miss those days!

    Trust me...the lizard was very much still alive...I know as I had to catch it and put it back outside.

    A couple of time Eddie has brought me just the tail....which continues to move even without the body....

    Eddie has a very gentle mouth!
