We had one under the house and it was a disaster
Cat brought a huge lizard in, it got away (while he proudly was showing it to us & I was filming). It totally disappeared. Weeks later we sensed a terrible aroma but it was impossible to detect the source... I eventually found it emanating from a floor heating register - the lizard had fallen in, gone back and forth in a 20-foot pipe, died in the middle of it!, and then was food for maggots. I had to take the whole pipe apart, get it out of the basement crawl space, and hose it out.
Bad kitty!
Bad Mike!
Another Wild Kingdom post from Chez Cazalea, featuring MIH
Don't let my dinner guests know about this, but we did some lizard whispering today. It started with a call from my wife, something like this: "Can you come rescue a lizard?" to which I replied, "I'm busy reading WPS, but Sure. Where is it?" She (tremblin...
A formidable wrist companion, it's true
Fits right in with Gerber, O&J and a few of those wrist watch w/pocket watch movements ...
What a story. Glad that no lizards were hurt in the making of this post.
Iāve always wanted one of those original MIH watches
There is a new MIH coming, known as the Mechanik2 or MII
Here is the website of the company making it, which includes one of the original designers, Christian Gafner. CHRISTIAN GAFNER GmbH Rainstrasse 19 2540 Grenchen Switzerland +41 76 365 8889 email to: sales at m 2020 saw EMBASSY Jewel AG in Lucerne cease p...
I think the original was in the $4k price range
Probably just keeping up with inflation -- $4000 has become $6300 (at least in the US dollar). According to the website it will arrive in less than 10 months -- I sent them an email asking if it in fact does exist already but have not received a reply yet...
I would have thought that Mrs. C is accustomed to the lizards given the intrepid outdoor explorer that she isā¦
but I wouldnāt be able to tolerate them in the house either!š¤£

Okay, agreed, after that experience I wouldnāt be happy about a āharmlessā lizard getting inside the houseā¦
Iām just surprised it got trapped the way it did, but thatās the humbling uncertainty of daily life.*sigh* p.s. Iām impressed the cat hadnāt killed it while playing initially.
Cats like to play with prey
Unless it fights back, then itās game over for the pest. ...
One of the coolest, stealthiest watchesā¦
And a very fun story, as always šš»šš»
