I had never even known about them until I found one in my bedroom on Valentine's Day during a blizzard when I was in ninth grade. By the way, they aren't native to this area. (We have a lot of skinks, and somehow lots of gators on gold courses, but not green anoles.)
I caught it, took it to school to show my science teacher. He was amazed I'd found one here. I named him Raphael and he was a wonderful pet for around a year or so. I did get him a nice aquarium and a heat lamp. I bought him crickets, but I also caught him loads of other bugs when I could. His favorite bugs were fireflies.
