Monty is back from the dead!
Our friendly pet black foot monitor lizard called Monty (by Mirra our short-term cook) has returned, after running off for a few days.
Mirra was worried she’d killed him by feeding him so much, but it turns out he just went off to hibernate.
Once he’d shed his skin he was back and just in time too – he returned just 10 minutes before Mirra left so he obviously wanted to say goodbye.
When Mirra left he left too – probably thought his luck was up. But just the other day he was back again.
Now he wanders through whenever he feels like it, no doubt hoping to see his old mate Mirra and catch some kitchen scraps.
