Elsa Pataky and her husband Chris Hemsworth have been supporting Chris’ brother, Liam Hemsworth, by staying by his side after it was confirmed he and his wife Miley Cyrus separated. But earlier this week, the actress took a quick break from her sister-in-law duties and stepped out for ice cream with her children and their two pet lizards. The 43-year-old model took to social media to share a clip of her kids playing with their “favorite pets!!” followed by a clip of the reptiles perched on her shoulders.

The Spanish star appears wearing a black turtleneck with her hair up in a messy chignong. “Ice cream with the reptiles,” she says. Elsa went on to ask her kids the names of the lizards and one replied, “Monty” while the other name was inaudible. Aside from lizards, the Hemsworths have an array of other family pets including two white chickens called Moto moto and Pizza and two guinea pigs. Based on the number of pets, it appears the family-of-five loves caring for animals.
