Oscar the Lizard

There was quite a bit of excitement in the Wilhelme house the other day. A lizard got into the house and we wanted to catch it before the cat and dog decided to have some fun with the little guy.

Those suckers are fast! Took us a while, but we managed to catch him. Owen wanted to keep him forever. He really wants a lizard (or a frog, or fish, or a guinea pig), so he tried to come up with some good arguments why he should be able to keep this little guy. He decided to name him Oscar after one of his favorite cartoons, Oscar's Oasis.

After a little bit, Owen realized that maybe the lizard did not want to live with us and he let it go in the garden. Owen now likes to leave a window open, just a little bit, in case Oscar wants to come back and play.
