Circuit to make a break for it away from Dr. Ridgeway. She almost absconded with his glasses and he had to catch her from running off the table. This was shortly before I put her on the monitor to calm down.

Vet tech left and she was brave again. I had to grab her right after this because she was getting too close to the electrical outlet for my comfort.

She chilled in my hand and wouldn't let me put her down, clinging onto my coat and hand after the vet came even when my elbow really started to hurt from being bent that long.

I'd never seen her this color before! The vet forgot she was back there for 30 min so this was the longest she'd ever been out of her enclosure without being able to see me and was VERY upset. Didn't calm down until I opened the top of her box so she could look up at me on the drive home.

Being on the monitor calmed her down. She was able to see out the window of the exam room door to the hallway, and she always likes being able to see what's going on.

I let her pick out her hornworm for treat day and she stood like this for 10 minutes after she ate a hornworm that was just on the verge of being too large, but the width just fit between her eyes. She spent a long time like this just swallowing and I was sort of worried!

She was angry at being weighed, didn't want to be held, was trying to run off the table, and wouldn't stay in her box so I put her on the monitor to calm down while we waited for the vet.

I feel like she really looks trusting of me in this pic. For a chameleon, I always thought she was weirdly comfortable at staring at me in the face. I try not to look at her when she does it though because eye contact at this distance freaks her out.

"Cuddles" between sun time(s). I came in to get her some water so she didn't overheat outdoors but got the vet-recommended time outside. She seemed to almost enjoy riding on my shoulder but I was worried she'd fall.

"Kisses"? She started nuzzling me, pushing her nose into my face, & contentedly stayed there for a while. She only raised the defensive arm when my mom came at us w/ the camera (Circuit's greatest enemy). She seemed to feel safe doing this as well as getting my sweat on her mouth, weirdo
