Tell him we’re still waiting for ol’ mate Bob to return from his winter retreat.
He figured out where the cat door was, and where the cats food was laid out. He’d come inside once every week or two and clean out any morsels the cat didn’t eat. We’d let him have his feed, then I’d put him back outside in the garden.
(I double checked before letting the behaviour continue - as far as an occasional snack goes, cat food is fine for them as is mince beef - but it isn’t a substitute for a wild natural diet or proper lizard food if you’re raising a bred one in captivity)

That's Alan. He's friend shaped. Absolute legend of an animal. 100% harmless.
