Aptly named, she thinks everything is a source of wonder to be explored and has gotten into trouble by opening many a box!
However, there was the time last summer when one got into our family room…Niksdad tells me it was a pretty funny sight and he had to rescue ol’ Sal.
She’s an indoor cat, but she’s a helluva huntress!
UPDATE 8/29/07 — I love the internet! Thanks to Melissa, I learned something new! The creature in the picture above is not a salamander; it is a skink. Who knew?? (Well, obviously Melissa did. I’m guessing it has something to do with an interest of her son, Conor, perhaps?). Not only is it a skink, it’s a young one! Whatever, my cat sure thinks it looks like one tasty treat; I’ve read confliciting reports that skinks can be toxic to cats or that they are not. No matter, Pandora will remain “skinkless” as long as I have anything to say about it!
Great shot. It is a skink, not a salamander.
Gah. It looks a bit snakey to me and I am so scared of snakes!!!
Melissa = past owner of an 8 foot colombian boa, iguana, madagascar day gecko, hedgehog, salamanders (the real things!). Can’t blame the exotic pet interest on Conor, this time (but my dh Rick certainly had a hand…)
I would have gone running away quick. Due to having very bad vision I get scared very easily when it comes to bugs and creatures like that.
When I could see I loved creepy crawlers.
