Lizard….or sock?

Animal collection officers from the RSPCA (The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals ) were called out the the address in Coventry after the family discovered an ominous looking reptile in their daughters room.

However,it soon became apparent to the officers that the the “lizard” wasn’t a reptile at all. It was, in fact, a pink stripy sock.

 

The Telegraph reports that an RSPCA spokesperson stated the sock had been there for a week and that she supposed it was a “typical teenager's bedroom”.
