Haru Our Lizard Hunter

Haru did it again. She killed another lizard last night when all of us were in slumberland and the lizard came out to hunt for food. Ever since we had Haru 2.5 years ago, lizards were fewer in the house. Haru’s lizard hunting skill has improved significantly recently and she now never fails to kill these reptile that come out at night when the house is dark and quiet.

While I appreciate Haru keeping our house free from pests, I do however abhor cleaning up after her hunting mess. And Haru always kills these lizards at night. So when I wake up at 5.30 in the morning, the first that I have to do is to remove the lizard’s remains on the kitchen floor, which is something that is revolting and not for those with a faint heart.

While the lizard’s body was on the floor, the bits of broken tail was on the counter top, behind the cup drainer shelf. I am guessing that Haru must have chased after the poor lizard and tortured it to death 😖

Can you see how much work it is for me to clean up the kitchen with each lizard hunting?

No wonder Haru kept jumping up the counter top and went behind the kettle this morning, in search of something. She has never done this before. She must have played catching with the poor fella on the counter top before torturing it to death. I had to sanitize the entire kitchen this morning!

I also just noticed that the gas knob was slightly turned on – check out the knob on the right side. Haru must have swiped the knob during her lizard-chase. Thank God she didn’t set herself on fire.
