40 Times Lizards Were Caught Being Unbearably Cute
Cold-blooded, cold-hearted. It’s a common misconception that lizards are cold, distant creatures who would rather stay in their nests and hide from the world than have anything to do with us. While it’s safe to say that they aren’t as sentimental or affectionate as dogs and cats, some types of lizards are social butterflies and can get quite attached to their human keepers. It takes patience, but it works.
And despite what some may say, like that they’re weird or ugly, they’re incredibly fascinating reptiles. I can’t be the only one who was obsessed with them at a young age! They’re basically tiny dinosaurs, so the perfect combination of cute and badass, if I do say so myself.
Add that they show a range of interesting behaviors, and pet lizards can easily become a photographer’s favorite subject. So here we are, changing all the preconceived notions about them with this collection of cute lizards! From big-eyed geckos to armadillo lizards that might remind you of baby dragons, these cuties are sure to make you a lizard lover!

Presenting Teacup Noodle
Smaug was bought from a pet store (yes I know it’s bad to support them, but at the time I didn’t know it) where she was kept in a 10 gal with another aggressive leopard gecko, in the back room. Her living conditions were not too good (not proper hearing, cohabbing, crickets literally everywhere biting them) and I believe it to be a deformity caused by an untreated case of mouth rot she got at the store. It was a stressful environment and she was kept on dirty urate stained reptile carpet, so I believe she got mouth rot there. It wasn’t treated but by the time I bought her, it was healed on its own, but it did leave a bit of a ripple in her mouth. She’s still my beautiful spaghetti and it doesn’t cause her any trouble.

You gave her a loving home. It doesn't matter where you got her, it sounds like she was a rescue spaghetti, so thank you.

Can Baby Lizards Be Cute Too? I Certainly Think So
Ovata Acronicta 4 years ago
Baby lizards are them at their cutest. And I get that adult crested geckos and leopard geckos (and AFTs) are very cute, but they are illegally cute when babies. *Illegally*. Baby geckos just steal my whole heart.

Maybe for bearded dragons? Depending on the cat? Def. not for leopard geckos or a soft lizard like that. Way too much risk.

They are really cute! Unfortunately, they do not really belong in the climate I live in, therefore, it would take lots of effort and costs to get them a terrarium that would at least meet all their requirements and give them a minimum of comfort. No lizards for me, I guess...
