Do cats eat certain kinds of small lizards and try to cough them up?

My 3 month old kitten has been coughing alot. He has passed it to my 8 month old kitten. The other day I found what looked like a skeleton of a gecko or something. It was about a inch long. They don't do it all the time. Mystique will do it like about a hour and nomore for a many days, same with Oreo. I did see Mystique eat a little tiny lizard of some sortthe other day. So just wondering if they could be eating and trying to cough them up, or eating something else.
Answers:
Sounds like your kitten is really sick. I recommend to take both cats to the hospital immediately. Sound like they have been poisoned by a small reptile or they may have heart worms and are vomiting them up. GET YOU CATS TO THE VET TODAY!!
Could be that, or a hairball, but to be on the safe side you should take them to the vet to be sure that's all it is, and not some disease.
Sabrina it depends of what kind : see kittens are paticular with
lizzards basicly because if any garden mamals who crawl and
run fast like a mouse some times can cause an problem
reccomended to see an vetnairian right away
