I currently have a 2006 cb Nevada chuck female. This morning as my cat walked by the lizard enclosure my chuck leapt off her rocks, ran to the glass and stated trying to bite and attack my cat. She did this for several minutes until my cat walked off. I picked up my cat and placed her by the cage again and the same thing happend. I have owned both the chuck and the cat since 2006 and have never witnessed this before. Any suggestions on why the change in my chuck's behavior is appreciated. Is it common for chucks to become more aggressive as they get older? At what age does a chuck become sexually mature?

I have the same problem with my dog and my Spinytailed Iguana. It's the lizards instinct and there is really nothing you can do. My suggestion would be to keep the cat away from the chuck so the lizard does not hurt its self. A spray bottle with water works wonders or put the lizard in a closed room the cat can't get into.
