Leopard gecko, orange-spotted, in glass terrarium
I lost my leopard gecko, Mochi, yesterday around 6pm. He is about 4 inches long, pale yellow with bright orange spots, and his tail is a bit chunky from eating well. He lives in a 10-gallon Exo Terra glass terrarium with a blue heat lamp and a cork bark hide, and he has a small white dot on the tip of his tail and a faint scar on the top of his snout. I last saw him outside the Texas Tech University Student Union Building by the big oak on 4th Street and University Ave, and he could have wandered toward the grassy areas behind the library. Mochi means a lot to me, and I am really hoping someone can help bring him back.
Red-eared slider turtle, 2-3 inches, found near Walmart
I found a red-eared slider turtle this afternoon around 3:45pm behind the Walmart on 19th Street in Lubbock. It's about 2 to 3 inches long, with a bright green shell and bold yellow lines, plus the distinctive red patch behind each eye. It looks healthy but a bit spooked, and I’ve put it in a temporary plastic tub with a shallow water dish and a couple of fake plants to hide in. The left edge of the shell has a tiny notch and there’s a small healed scratch along the top ridge—two features that might help you recognize it if it’s yours. I really want to reunite it with its owner; pets like this deserve a good home.
