Cyco was a Green Iguana. Our son acquired her as a juvenile from a friend in September of 1992 (his senior year of high school).

Though her official habitat was a large suitably equipped terrarium, she generally had free reign of his bedroom and most days you would find her basking on his window sill. She soon decided his shower stall was perfect for her "comfort" needs and daily changes of papers made terrarium cleaning easy and infrequent.

Her growth eventually required a large cabinet set-up (kitchen, then living room), which did become a little snug at her full length of just under five feet. By that time, she was becoming a little less active and not constantly determined to explore the house.

As our son moved on with his life, I think he knew Cyco should stay with us. It was her home. She was a part of our life too, well taken care of, and we loved her.
