Doesn't your cat freak your gecko out? I haven't let my cat in my room since I got the gecko in there (and it's where he used to sleep so he's pretty pissed about it). I was told it would stress the gecko out - maybe make her drop her tail...did it scare your geckos at all to have a kitty beat starin at them?
btw beautiful geckos!

I think it depends on how your cat acts towards them. My cat is really calm around my animals (hamster & lizards), she can quite happily sit by their cage and just watch..... but she gets bored easily and walks off lol :lol: My leos find my cat fascinating! They push themselves up on their front legs and watch her walking around lol :crackup: they're not stressed out by her at all. I can get them out when shes sitting with me and she won't take any notice. How is your cat with small animals?

Thank you, Gypsy!
My cats leave my geckos alone for the most part. I was paranoid at first, but I finally decided that keeping them away (especially Izzi--he's a loon!) would just make them that much more interested and prone to be extra bad if the opportunity arose (i.e. when I'm at work/asleep). I leave the geckos' tanks covered (I leave room over the screen lid so they can still get some air circulation in there!) with sheets/pj bottoms/skirts/light kitchen towels when I am away. Out of the five cats I own, two of them (Sissy and Izzi) are interested in the geckos when I feed them their crickets. At that time, these two cats will sometimes bat at the crickets in the two lowest tanks I have set up, which are Sephiroth's and Fry's, but it doesn't phase them at all. I think the geckos think the kitty paws are crickets and want to eat them! Plus, like Kazska said, I think the geckos find the cats interesting to see. I've seen both Fry and Sephi give the kitties extremely inquisitive looks! ;-)
Of course, it does depend on the temperaments of both cat and gecko to have peaceful encounters. I'm not saying to turn your cat loose to see your gecko--you know your animals best, and if you feel keeping them apart is safest, then keep doing it! :biggrin:

thanks guys - considering my cat thinks lizards are snacks (inside-outside cat) I will keep him away from the gecko - but it is good to know that if I have a different cat in the future it can have peaceful encounters with my geckos
