It is a common kernel of wisdom that before you can love anyone else, you have to love yourself — but this gecko may have taken that advice just a wee bit too far.

The adorable creature has become internet famous during the past several days thanks to images showing it snuggled up with a toy gecko that looks alarmingly like a mini-me. In a majority of the shots, the live gecko looks remarkably like he’s wearing a large smile.

The photos, which came to a wider audience after they were shared on Twitter by well-known YouTuber Taylor Nicole Dean, are original to an Instagram account belonging to a user named @589_tomo.

The account is full of adorable images of the lizard and his plastic counterpart that are too cute for words.
