Meet Toxel, a resilient little leopard gecko with a big story. This sweet girl had a rough start to life and arrived at the shelter severely underweight. With dedicated care, proper feeding, and lots of gentle attention, she’s been steadily putting weight back on and showing everyone just how strong and spirited she is.

Toxel absolutely loves to be handled and is happiest when she’s perched in your hand, calmly watching the world around her. She’s a gentle and curious companion who enjoys human interaction and will make a wonderful pet for someone ready to give her the stability she deserves.

Her new family will need to continue her weight-gain journey, keeping up with proper feeding, supplements, and husbandry to help her reach and maintain a healthy size. With the right care, Toxel is well on her way to thriving.

If you’re looking for a friendly, handleable leopard gecko with a brave little heart, Toxel is ready to go home and shine.
