A chameleon escapes
store. They were so cute and adorable, looked like micro-miniature alligators. They would change color from solid green to solid tan, and then back to green. I never really knew what caused these color changes, I would just look at them, and one time they would be green, another time brown, and then later on they would be green again. I didn't know there were any other colors in their repertoire. Until the escape. The chameleon wound up under the sofa. I don't remember what led to the escape. But I looked in the cage, and the chameleon wasn't there. I started looking around, then I saw the family cat playing with something that was under the sofa. The cat was fixated on its play, intent on getting its paws on whatever was under there. It wasn't easy to get the cat out of the way, but sure enough, once I did, there was the chameleon. Stressed out. And, not green, not brown, but alternating shades of tan and grey. Even a couple of white blotches here and there. I didn't know a chameleon could do that. It died later that day.
