I have a bird...when I'm home the door to her cage is open so she can do whatever she wants...it's closed for safety when I'm gone...one of my others got caught behind a bookshelf and we couldn't find her for hours so I don't leave them alone these days...
Lizards....they need live food this is either mealworms or crickets....mealworms go in the fridge and get bits of apple for food but in some cases they can burrow out though the lizard so they are not as good as crickets also they mature into inedible beetles after a while. Crickets you have to buy a dozen at a time and they chirp at night....so for a few weeks until they are eaten you put up with the sound all night...so in general I would not recommend lizards...
Cats...pretty straight forward littler box some puke/hair balls etc but generally very nice when they want to be...
