Tis not easy being green...

Once upon a time, there was a iguana, named Izzie; who eventually stole the hearts of those, who were not fond of reptiles. When she (Izzie) first came to live with those who were not fond of reptiles (Shannan, Sarah and I); she was put on the floor. Izzie ran one way, Shannan, Sarah and I ran the other.

Ryan was the one who brought her home, from the animal care center; where he volunteered. Yet it was Shannan who ended up caring for her; by feeding, cleaning her cage and bathing her. As the story goes; Ryan eventually moved out, Izzie stayed.
Izzie has become a part of our family; just as Max, Sophie and Zoe are.

They are not green.

She is very cute! I think she'd get along with my desert tortoise Miss Tortellini :)
