Well, I didn't find Kleo *sigh* but our neighbour's gardener found me several more chameleons ^.^ he finds them next door, in the area where the guard dog is kept. There seem to be loads there. But the guard dog is for the whole compound - there are four houses, plus one unoccupied - so I wonder if I'm allowed to go and look over there by myself.

Anyway, the chameleons. First was Nyx, then Styx, then Apollo and then, today, Jupiter.






Unfortunately I haven't got a photo of Jupiter, yet, because he was brought to me just as I'd found an adorable little baby chameleon - he / she was really, really young - and I wanted to photograph it before letting it go. Maybe when I only have one adult chameleon, rather than three, it could be possible. But catching seven insects (at least!) each per adult is hard enough. And babies eat as much as they can get their hands on...and catching grasshoppers and things that small, I could accidentally squash them and then that would be of no use, would it?

Here's a photo of Zeus - Sky called her that, but it does rather suit it, lol -, although he / she is very dark because he / she wasn't too happy with being forced to constantly walk back and forth along the same branch so I could possibly get a sharp photo of it in the low light.

He or she was happier than that most of the time... *cringe*

Oh, and I forgot to mention the dogs. Toffee has grown! Here's a picture of her I posted ages ago, on this blog...

...and here's a photo of her now!

She's only a little smaller than her mother, Sandy, who's still around. There's also the aforementioned guard dog, an Alsatian called Jake who looks scary with a scar on his nose (and he's really huge) but is really soppy (though he chases Toffee around, or was a few nights ago anyway, and whines outside the door when we have her inside) and two of the puppies Sandy had while we were away are being kept nextdoor-ish by our landlord's son. Oh, and there are a few strays which were abandoned by a previous tenant of one of the houses in the compound - apparently he left in the middle of the night, taking all the fixtures and light bulbs and things with him, and callously abandoning the dogs :(

Other than that, nothing much new. I'll try and post again asap.
