A cicak had landed on her missing nipple sticker and found itself stuck.
“[It] probably tried to crawl away but it was stuck to the adhesive,” she says in the video, adding that she wasn’t sure if it was dead or not, as it was sitting perfectly still for 20 minutes.
Unsure of what to do, she moved the items around it aside, triggering the cicak to move slightly, which signalled that it was indeed alive

Trying to not scare it yet wanting to rescue it, she decided to carry out an ‘operation’ to save the house lizard

She wore a pair of gloves and carried the little fella to her laundry room where she gently peeled it off the nipple sticker with a pencil.

After making sure that the cicak, which she affectionately called a ‘baby dino’ was all good, she set it free and bade it farewell
