Today, I discovered how startling it is to wake up by having your cat springboard off your face. The intended prey? Two fornicating geckos on the ceiling. FML

To everyone who keeps asking "How did they get on your ceiling?" and "Why are they in your house?" Geckos are native to Florida, they can crawl through the tiniest places and the tips of the digits on their limbs are like mini suction cups, giving them the ability to climb most vertical surfaces as well as being upside down. My ceiling is also popcorn style so there was plenty to hold onto. And yes, I'm almost certain one had a foreign accent...though I'm not sure which.

Fall

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

At least he didn't springboard off your face while you were fornicating.

Your cat is really something else. I guess not everyone wants a free quote on auto insurance.

Am I the only one wondering why there are geckos on the ceiling?

how do you know they weren't married?

Geckoty.

why are people struggling to understand that geckos can quite easily get inside your house? Do they find it weird when spiders or other insects get inside their house? I used to get lizards inside my house all the time

I've lived in Florida and now in Hawaii and totally get geckos in my house too. And I have cats. Anytime I see a gecko outside of my house I tell them "don't go inside. I have two hungry cats that will eat you ALIVE."

Well, that FML made my afternoon, for sure.

This is the first time I've seen the word "fornicating" on this site.

That's why you buy Gecko Insurance.
