Awww Monday with my adorable Nephews


We thank our Hostess Sandee at Comedy Plus


Dearest Auntie HiC
We had some excitement, April 30th, which was my 4th gotcha day.
Mom had taken out the RV rugs so she could vacuum & mop the floors. When Dad brought in the rugs, a hitchhiking lizard was hiding inside one.
The lizard fell out of the rug & ran under the recliners, with Rocky & I in hot pursuit.

On the other hand, Mom screamed & ran into the bedroom, slamming the door behind her. 😹😹

Now, in her defense, this was not the kind of cute, little lizard we have in Georgia.

This monster, a desert horned lizard,  looked like a miniature, cat-eating dinosaur! 🙀

After a brief discussion (Mom freaking out), it was decided to let us do what we do instinctively, look for prey, hopefully without anyone (🦎) getting hurt.


Rocky understood the assignment & immediately got to work, sniffing out the enemy. It took him less than a minute  (48 seconds) to track it down.

Mom took us to bedroom while Dad opened all RV doors. The 🦎 jumped right out the door, & hasn’t been seen since! 😹


I was proud of the little fellow❣️ All the excitement wore me out. 

❤️ Kat 


Dearest Rocky and Kat OMCs that was a lot excitement for one day.

Rocky yay you are a Hero saving your family from a cat-eating lizard and on your 4th Gotcha Day!! Auntie would have been on the roof screaming.

Lovingly and very Proud

Auntie HiC

Kit wrote that she had a mental image of me on an RV roof screaming. I added her peeping from behind the door. 

(FYI this is not our RV...Auntie grabbed this off PiZap)

So of course I had to do with it.  All created via PiZap

  4. You go! Rocky the lizard hunter!!! I have seen those lizards as pets, but never in the wild environment. it is common for us to have lizards in the house but not like this one. we might need your services Rocky if we had these type. LOVE the graphic and that is one cute RV trailer . I want one in the side yard for my SHE shed getaway from the noise in the house

  5. Rocky, you definitely saved the day, for your mom and the lizard! Lizards are not native to our area, being too far north and too cold most of the year, so I bet I would have screamed too!!!

    He actually was a pretty neat looking fellow, at least when seen from a distance. Lol.

  6. Well who's kitties are having quite a bit of excitement and so is their mom and dad. Not sure about wanting the lizard inside of my mobile home that's for sure. What a good video and a great picture at the very end

  12. Rocky sure is a hero! The moral of the story is to make sure you shake out those carpets before bringing them in next time. BOL!

  16. I would have been right behind your mom, Rocky. Lizards are so scary looking!

  17. Way to go, Rocky!!! Mom was startled by a lizard in one of our UPSTAIRS BATHROOM a few years ago. No clue how he got there, but thinking is he might have come up through a drain. Mom scooped him up in a towel and raced down the stairs to get him outside!!!

  20. YIKES! A dinosaur in your RV! I think once it saw you two guys and realized it was up against the two of you it vacated the premises as fast as it's four legs could carry it........smart!

  21. Oh, my stars! What a grand adventure. I'm glad the lizard left, the poor thing climbs into what he hopes will be a little den for a nap and wakes in an RV, how scary for him, too.

    I wish you many happy returns of your Gotcha Day!
