I'm sure there's nothing to be worried about, judging by the pics you posted he looks nice, healthy and alert. What do you mean by "walks like a cat"? If you're refering to the hatchet walk (puffs up and makes himself look taller while walking in a jerky way) or simply the intima-puff (simply puffing up while walking to make himself known)? The attitude is pretty normal for most males, sometimes even out of breeding season. A lot of the time it's based on territory, basically telling you "hey...this here area is mine see..." lol ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png) Silly creatures. If you need info on head bobs and what they mean heres a good place to start: www.niad.org/green-iguana-bobbing.htmland here's a link to the green iguana society on the body language of an ig. www.greenigsociety.org/body.htmDo no worry, you're iguana sounds just fine. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
