I was very lucky to have a good friend take excellent care of Shiver when i went away at easter, i still worried and called though lol.
If she's not available we have an excellent reptile store nearby who pet-sit :D
I personally wouldn't want to leave a cham alone for even one day, too much...
Haha, unfortunately she's 30 something and engaged lol :p
I was really worried about leaving Shiver, even if Christine had kept reptiles for years i would've still been worried.
I know it was a big risk but there was no one else i trusted as much, i have another friend ( early 20's but...
I've heard so many stories about bad reptile sitters with either very ill or dead chameleons when the owner comes back off holiday.
I've got the opposite :)
We went away last week and came back today, leaving Shiver in the care of a very good friend of mine.
My friend has no reptile...

Yeah, the sticky tape & honey has worked really well. I caught 2 scurrying across the carpet this morning and had about 20 on the bits of tape.
I haven't found any more yet.
Thanx for all of your advise :)
Luckily i didn't get any roaches - the only ones they had were too big.
He didn't get my locusts either luckily.
We've searched the room from top to bottom, hoovered everywhere possible and have put sticky tape with honey on in the dark corners of the room.
I'm laughing over it now, suppose...
Oh dear, that's a LOT more than what's loose here.
I think i've got most of them now, i've just put a load of sticky tape down with a bit of honey on so that should get the rest.
Yeah, i suppose it is ( no offense taken ), the dogs are shut out of the lounge but i think my partner left the door open even though he's not admitting it lol.
All of my bugs live on top of the fish tank at the mo ( about 5' high ) and he still managed to get them.
I've caught quite a few now...
Got home from work today and found that Max, my wolf hybrid, had got into the lounge and raided my box of crickets, box was on it's side with the lid off.
I had approx 500 crickets in there!!
I've spent the last 2 hours hunting them and only seem to have found 200 ish, as you can imagine...
