I think this one is a regular cat who is still crouched down from sniffing its stylish accessory. It just looks like it's a fully standing Munchkin because of the perspective, diffuse lighting and floof ruffles on the shoulderblades that are very slightly out of frame. The curve top right looks like it might be its left hip.
Also wishful thinking. I hope the lizard went on to lead a long and fulfilling life too, for what it's worth.
