. Four feet, two feet, and no feet; or, Furry and feathery pets, and how they live. Animal behavior. THE PET LIZARDS.. MONG Uncle Will's pets were some gray lizards. A great many of these little fel- lows are found near the city of Washington. They are four or five inches long. They are nice and clean to the touch, and make amusing pets. You will see them sitting on the walls and fences, in the sun, and you can catch them easily, if you know how. You must go up to them very slowly, for if you make ^^, a swift motion they are off.
