Imagine waking up to this bad boy in your kitchen???
The homeowner called 911 and this is how that went . . .
Dispatcher: What's going on?
Frosti: There's an alligator in my kitchen.
Dispatcher: Are you sure it couldn't be like an Iguana?
Frosti: Oh-no, no, no, no, no.
This alligator turned out to be 8 feet long. I would venture to say it would definitely be hard to confuse this bad boy with a Iguana.
Mr Wally Gator pushed his way through a screen door (probably a Lanai or Florida Room) and managed to get into the main house through an open sliding door. (I must remember to close my sliders at night from here on.)
Wally then began to wander about the house going through the living room, down a hall and ended up in the kitchen.
The homeowner hearing the noise, went to investigate and found the 8 foot Wally lounging in her kitchen. She smartly hid in her bedroom closet and called 911.
A trapper was dispatched to the home and captured the animal. It is thought Wally was looking for a midnight snack...the woman's cat. Fortunately the woman and her cat survived unharmed.
Springtime is mating season for alligators and we do get a lot of strange stories about alligators, but this one had to take the cake. Could this be used as a selling point on the house? I will be keeping closer tabs on that gator in the pond behind my house.

Sure wish I could have used this for the Springtime Contest in POSITIVE ATTITUDE for the Weary Soul.
