Hi there! I’m Gemini 🦎✨
I’ve been in rescue care since July 2024, and while my start in life wasn’t the easiest, I’m so excited to share how far I’ve come. I was saved by a kind pet store manager who knew something wasn’t right when I was being housed with another leopard gecko (that’s a big no-no for our species). The stress from cohabitation left me underweight and not quite thriving.
Both of us came into rescue together, and while my tank mate bounced back pretty quickly once they were in their own enclosure, I needed some extra TLC 💛. With time, patience, and proper care, I slowly turned a corner—and now? I’m a happy-go-lucky little diamond in the rough, healthy, curious, and ready for my forever home 🥰
A few fun facts about leopard geckos:
🦎 We’re generally solitary and do best living alone
🌙 We’re crepuscular, meaning we’re most active at dawn and dusk
🐛 We eat insects and are known for our adorable, expressive faces
🏠 With proper care, we can live 15–20+ years
💛 We’re often great reptiles for both first-time and experienced keepers, but contrary to popular belief, we are not great for young kids
If you’re looking for a resilient, charming companion with a sweet personality and a story of perseverance, I just might be the one for you!
