Warning! To All Chameleon Owners!

[Goldenarcher1328]

This is something all cham owners should view. Both new owners and life long keepers.
I came up with this earlier and decided i to give it its own thread.

Chameleon Keeping
Signs of addiction include but are not limited to:
-Finding new meaning and excitement in the 1983 hit "Karma Chameleon".
-Becoming overly excited for objects with a chameleon in the name or logo.
-Finding yourself replacing pictures of friends and family on Facebook with photos of chameleons.
-Late nights rationalizing why you need to purchase more chameleons for your collection.
-Removing long cherished items from the home in order to make room for additional enclosures.
-Spending hard earned money on Vines, Sticks and Leaves instead of Clothing, Food and Electricity.

If you think you have an addiction please contact your local dealer and seek additional help from your divorce lawyer.

Prolonged exposure may lead to more serious symptoms such as:
-Bankruptcy
-Restricted living space
-Loss of interest in non reptilian creatures
-Loss of spare time
-Loss of sleep
-Extended periods of chirping within the house
-Awesomeness
-Prolonged periods of happiness

Haha, Hope you all enjoyed that.

I used to sing this to my first cham, but changed the word 'karma' to 'Lily' (her name)!!!! Does that make me somewhat strange?!?!?!

A lot of that is true! Guilty as charged! Oh, and the facebook one! I only have a few family pics on there - probably about 95% are of my chameleons past and present! I even created Monty a page yesterday so that people can 'like' him!!

funny how they are just like our children. I mailed my first pygmy baby off to NY today, and I felt like a new, nervous mother in FEDEX! "Please be careful with this, she's only a baby!!!"

 

[Branman]

After I got into chameleons I suddenly became a huge snob regarding any type of chameleon toy or decoration. You quickly point out things like "The eyes are wrong!" or "They curled the tail in the wrong direction!" etc.

Also frustrated at the general lack of chameleon anything out there, in spite of how gorgeous they are. You'd think they'd be all over the place, but I guess it's more "eeew, reptiles!" syndrome.
