My hornworm monster, Henry.

My cat enjoys chewing on them and then leaving them as a tribute. He's a monster... Your kitten will be just fine, may get some hornworm juice on his face and chest, but he'll be ok.

Get a Katchy device - it sits outside the cage and has a light and a sticky pad on the bottom. If your gnat issue is bad, and your chameleons are in a separate room with a door wait for them to fall asleep at night, then open their cage doors and shut the main door to the room. The gnats will...

That makes sense - good luck with your new boy, I can tell he's in great hands! Just wait, now you will want a second one soon, that's how it always happens to us :ROFLMAO:

Congrats on your cute boy, and I love your drawings. Do you have a good reptile vet in your area where you can get some help for his eye? I understand he came to you that way, so this is no reflection on you, but now that he's in your care you are able to get him the help he needs. :)

What a cutie!

I should also mention I only use that for transportation to the vet because it's a long ride. Once I get there I have individual shoe boxes (cardboard, not plastic), with a stick inside and another small towel on the bottom. I move the chameleon from the laundry bag to the box and carry the...

I use a mesh pop-up laundry bag (you could buy one at Walmart or Target), which comes with plastic sticks for the outside to hold it's shape. I take a bendy vine and zip tie it on the inside, making sure the ends of the zip tie are outside of the container. I put an old towel in the bottom...

The red dots are probably an allergic reaction and very common. After you handle your chameleon make sure you wash your hands and arms with soap and water and they will disappear fairly quickly.

Herbert is around and doing great - I just heard his lights come on, actually. I'm not on here a ton because I've started a small business with my husband, but Herbert is thriving. He's starting to see me less as a threat and comes running for breakfast time.

She is beautiful and will make beautiful babies with Hank!

Jann, I'm still shocked at his sudden passing. He was always such an incredibly sweet and kind man, every time I saw him. The devotion he showed to you and all your pets is simply unparalleled - when you two were together he would simply light up when you spoke or he looked at you. He was so...

I'd also be happy to help - been an avid reader all my life, but will force myself to go slowly and savor your work if you'd like me to. I'm a child of the 80's and have kept reptiles for about 17 years, so I think I fit your demographic :ROFLMAO:

I'm so sorry for your loss. I really enjoyed watching your journey with him, to become the chameleon information ambassador that you are today. Because of him countless chameleons have lived with much better conditions than they might otherwise have. His impact, and yours, is one of the most...

Like everyone else said it's normal. My old panther would bruise like this as well. Just think about how sensitive your arm can be after bloodwork, and then imagine if you used it to wrap your arm around a banister. That said, you should see improvement in how your chameleon uses his tail in...

Wilson was so beautiful, and he lived a wonderful life with you. I'm so sorry.

Well done and very much deserved!

I'm so sorry you are dealing with this! I second the idea about the air purifier, and I'd use some tape to seal up the windows. If they are in their own room I'd shut the door and stuff a towel under it as well. Also, if there is an a/c or heating vent in the room I'd shut that. I really...

Such a handsome guy, and probably FAR friendlier than my Reggie! :ROFLMAO:

Thanks everyone! Andrew and I have been texting, so he'll get updates. My chams have their own room (but can't see each other), and the door is left open with a baby gate in front for my cats. One can has too stumpy of legs to clear the gate, the other is too stupid to know that he can (he's...
