Today, I discovered how startling it is to wake up by having your cat springboard off your face. The intended prey? Two fornicating geckos on the ceiling. FML

To everyone who keeps asking "How did they get on your ceiling?" and "Why are they in your house?" Geckos are native to Florida, they can crawl through the tiniest places and the tips of the digits on their limbs are like mini suction cups, giving them the ability to climb most vertical surfaces as well as being upside down. My ceiling is also popcorn style so there was plenty to hold onto. And yes, I'm almost certain one had a foreign accent...though I'm not sure which.

At least he didn't springboard off your face while you were fornicating.

Your cat is really something else. I guess not everyone wants a free quote on auto insurance.

One of the most fascinatingly worded FMLs I've ever seen...and no I do not care if fascinatingly is a word or not

D8 That is so damn disturbing. Do Geckos eat your stuff or leave droppings?

We have those little buggers here in Texas too. Yuck! I feel your pain.

Fellow Floridian here! These geckos do suck, I'm terrified of lizards and have had to call my dad on a daily basis during the summer. At least your cats want to help with the problem? My dogs are on the geckos side.

Australia has them aswell, I think they're cute. it's funny watching them catch bugs.

That is giving me anxiety just thinking about it

Okay, but if waterbugs/Palmetto bugs/Geckos/Lizards scare you... Alligators AND Crocodiles - Aka "Florida's Dogs". Wild Hogs (Don't laugh, trust me.) Deer (Seriously.) Black Bears. THREE types of Rattlesnakes (Diamondback, Pygmy, and Timber). Water Moccasins/Cottonmouth Snakes Copperhead Snakes Coral Snake. Black Widow Spiders. Brown Recluse Spiders. Sharks - Including but not limited to the occasional Great White. Jellyfish - Including but not limited to Man O Wars and Box. Buffalo (yeah). Pythons and Boas in Southern parts. Fire Ants. Ticks. Yellow Jackets and other Hornets/Wasps Hurricanes. Tornadoes. Sudden random Ninja Thunderstorms from hell which wreck havoc in minutes then disappear - or it rains for days straight. Lighting (Florida is apparently hit the most.) Flooding. Wild Fires (We're almost always on fire.) ... Tourists and Serial Killers. Drivers. And these are just SOME of the dangers of Florida. Do not come here. Just saying.

Gah fellow Floridian here, too. I've had enough of those unfortunately.

Don't forget sink holes, radon gas, and car jackers.

Rawrshi just earned a "****" from me. From a fellow Floridian, I can say that she just summed up Florida in a nutshell.

So I can pretty much forget about going to college at the University of Miami...

...animals that are mating are considered fornicators? Uh... people invented marriage. Animals will never get married to produce offspring since they rarely (if ever) do it for pleasure xD

Do you mind citing your source? Plenty of animals bang for pleasure. |the kid|

Dolphins (one example that I can remember off the top of my head) have sex for pleasure!!!! Research some random facts when you get bored! Never know what you will find! :D

Plus the male animal doesn't have to give the female half when they divorce. :).

I heard that when cats have sex the mail cat has barbs on his penis. I don't know if its true but that's what I've heard. I also heard that dolphins are the only other thing that has sex for pleasure other then humans.

dolphins also use puffer fish for pleasure. aka. the blow fish...

Fun fact: Animal sex without the purpose of mating is called forced copulation because we cannot discern if an animal gives consent. Therefore it's incorrect to call "rape".

it's true about the male cat's penis...I've seen it and it looks like a spike. can't imagine what the female must go through in the process.

There's plenty of wild cats where I live. By the sounds they sometimes make at night time I think it hurts. Or perhaps someone is stepping on their tail

How tall are you? Geckos are tiny how do you know they were banging
