Do you understand now why i love Leonardo soo much?He is so sweet!

When im sat on the living room sofa he comes quietly asking to be rubbed!

That is just the SWEETEST picture!!!!
It made me want to kiss the computer screen. He's so cute...he looks like a little baby!

It must of been cuddle weekend for PTS, because I took some pictures of Dill, snuggled up with me under a blanket on the couch. We were lounging around, watching TV, and she layed on my stomach for the longest time, with just her head and arms sticking out from under the blanket!
I should post some of those pictures when I get home for you to see.

Perhaps yours MTS is still more sweet than mine because you've a girl and i've a boy!

I think maybe you should of named your PTS ROMEO instead of Leonardo.
He seems like quite the heart stealer!

I will resize a couple of the pictures and post them for you to see.

You're really lucky to have a MTS as tame as that. Did you get it as a newborn and raise it? Is it your only one or do you just give it special attention? I've never seen one that tame nor would I have ever guessed that one could be tamed down like that. I've fallen for BTS in that fashion and have a few that are quite tame and just got two cute fatties sent to me today that are worth twice what I got them for. Got them from Bruce on the classifieds. A brother and sister he raised captive born himself. What do you feed your MTS? Mike.

I have LOTS of experince with iguanas and im using it with Leonardo, my MTS.I have had him for a few moths only.I bought/rescued him from a very bad petshop where he was literally starving. I cut his nails i give him warm baths and i sweet talk with him and i rub his head and chin.Just like i use to do with my igs.But there is a HUGE difference!MTS are far easier to tame than igs!lol!

Maaf- saya lupah banyak melayu,
I used to live in K.L. as well- had an iguana there a number of years back. Now I'm in the states, and have a few PTS- one of which imitates your Leonardo for "friendliness," though comes nowhere as close! (You've got a good looking animal there.)Odd story about the ig- it escaped into the wild (well, as wild as Ampang gets) and I found it about four months later. At that point it was the healthiest looking iguana in captivity I have ever seen. Now, it was good that I recaptured it, because I'm aware of the risk of introduced species, but I was fascinated by how well it adapted to that environment.
Sorry, just a tangent,
Take care and hope your herps are doing well,

The story about your iguana is very common here, in Malaysia.Almost all the igs that escaped( and are found) were in great shape when their owners finally caught them back again!I raise my babies in my balcony, they get wet by the rain, tan by the sun and all of them reached 5 feet at 3 years old!lol!Great place to raise igs!If you leave them outdoors and give them good food, they grow like houses!lol!
