Not MY pet, but a pet and this seems to be the best place to post this type of thing. Get ready for your feel good turtle story of the week.

Hei, cute lizard. I do have a question...
My wife is so against pets in the apartment, because of the smell. And my daughters really want a pet.
Does keeping a lizard as a pet result in bad smells in the room where the terrarium is kept ?

Reptiles don't really have body odor, but they do shit like any other animal so it's on you to keep the cage clean.

Like Gavinmad says. Their waste product is what smells... like the reptile room in a zoo

As long as you get rid of their awful poo they don't smell at all. The insects I keep (Dubia roaches) smell more.
I would suggest a plant eating lizard if you get one as keeping and feeding insects is kinda annoying. My bearded dragon is like 8 years old now and I mainly feed him salads nowadays.
A turtle might be a good choice or some other plant eating lizard.

My 14 year old cat Pumpkin listening to her favorite song, "Beauty in Falling Leaves" by the doom metal band Yob. She never makes that squinty-eyed-stare-off-into-the-distance-while-relaxing face (she's just staring at a blank spot on the wall) any other time besides when she's listening to music she likes, and especially blissed out post-metal songs like that one haha.
Porch cat Charly at the new apartment building I moved to in April. She's technically a feral but she wasn't nervous around people at all. The guys that live here say she didn't let anyone pet her ever, but I ended up getting her to let me. Now she'll sit in my lap and let me give her rubdowns. We think maybe she's pregnant (hard to tell, she eats well) which is scary tho since we live on a corner of a busy one-way road in the middle of town.

My kitten is 5 months old and now 3 foot long, nose to tail. He's too big for his favourite ottoman footstool, much to his disgust he falls off when asleep as he hangs over the edge. Supposedly they grow until about 4 years, but I'd imagine at a reduced rate, but he's still going to be a big boy. Size 11 shoe for reference, he'd just been busy killing it. Still amazingly patient with my 5 and 2 year old boys
