I'm sitting here reading posts, I see something out of the corner of my eye......omg, it's my frog hopping across the living room rug!!

I picked him up, plucked the cat hair and a few pieces of fuzz off him as I carry him back to his tank and put him in.
he promptly swam and hid behind his water dish.

There was a big opening in the back of the tank where the filter goes, I had covered all but the tiniest opening, just enough for a frog to slip through, I guess.
Now, it's fully covered.

I'm glad the cat didn't see him first.
He looks ok, I changed his water last night, but I just added some stress coat, just in case.

Now he's happily in his zen pose.

Whew, close one. I hope he doesn't show signs of distress in the next couple hours.

Frogs don't hop lol

sorry couldn't help but laughing at that one!!!!!

first we had the puppy licking the betta, then the frog covered with cat hair!!!

next we're gonna have an angelfish being carried around by the bird!!!!!!


all kidding aside, glad he's OK!!!
he's a cute little bugger!!!

Lucy

He's an ADF and he hopped....check out his pic, the link to my tanks is my siggy.





I decreased the amount of water, so it's not right up to lip of the tank, little escapt artist.

Ooooooo. Wow. Sneaky little fella lol. Nice pics.

I thought you meant a terrestrial frog =)

Lucy, that made me laugh also. It really is a good thing you found him before the cat did!!

I like those little guys, they must be escape artists. I am glad he is ok and back to Zen posing!!!

My adf's got out of the net one time when I was moving them from tank to tank and they did hop lol..

The thought of a frog hopping across the living room made me laugh... Yeah just about everything I've ever kept has gotten out multiple times (mice, rabbit, gerbils, firebelly toads--not to mention horses out at the ranch, though those aren't mine)...it's scary when you realize they're out but in retrospect its always so funny thinking about chasing random animals around the house.....

you should have seen me going around in circles for one hour trying to figure out where my mystery snail was...

Lucy

Funny thing is, he had to hop around the couch to get to where he was.

If he had hopped under the couch, this thread would have a different title.

If it was under the couch at my house, it would have been under memorials for us. Now I am worried Patch will get out of his tank I am getting him tomm... Oh the horrior if the cat sees him.

Lucy

My thoughts exactly!

I'm pretty sure some of those screened tanks have little clips on the lid, otherwise little animals would be running rampant. lol

Angelika

how funny is that..... well I have a glo fish that completely vannished from my tank today... maybe it also found a way out .. I just cannot find it.

Lucy

Oh, I'm sorry you lost a fish, weird how they can just disappear.
