cute!! they have so much personality!! lol

I've got jillions of those little green lizards, too - anoles - and I've only seen them eat a caterpillar once, and that was a cutworm. They eat lots of hard-bodied insects here. The manuals that they sell in pet stores list various hard insects as their preferred food, with caterpillars rarely eaten, so I think if you have a healthy ecosystem, they won't eat your cats. I've never seen a frog eat a butterfly or caterpillar either, just bugs, so if they eat any, it can't be often. In my area, the biggest predators on caterpillars are wasps and stinkbugs, and about the only predators on adult butterflies are mantids and spiders, but, again, these attacks are rare. For whatever reason, in my area this year the wasps have been fewer in number than in years past, but the stinkbugs have been everywhere! MissSherry
