She likes to paw them and eat them. I have yet to see one living insect or spider in our apartment - Kira is great at keeping it free of creepy crawly things! :)Front Porch Societyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03515383787374168157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-20649355973391003392009-07-02T08:23:18.160-05:002009-07-02T08:23:18.160-05:00That thing was gross and ridiculously hairy, and h...That thing was gross and ridiculously hairy, and he acted like it was the coolest thing on the planet!! He's SUCH a boy!<br /><br />He also didn't mention the fact that he tried to get me into that bathroom without actually telling me what he caught. Just, "Come here! You've GOT to see this!" Knowing him, I expected a lizard or a frog or something! Not a big, nasty, hairy spider! <br /><br />And yeah, I ran out of there like a girl!

[I wonder how PETA deals with that one.].<br /><br />If they eat mosquitoes, then they are a protected species on my property.<br /><br /><br />[Remember that is was a spider who once saved the life of King David by spinning her web across the entrance to the cave in which he was hiding. King Saul, seeing that the web was covering the cave, did not go into the cave to try to find David.]Expatriate Owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05094406368801045958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-14183982994962088702009-07-01T19:58:21.158-05:002009-07-01T19:58:21.158-05:00THAT thing is nasty..

Poor little guy thought he was getting a treat only to be rewarded with a trick.<br /><br />And while I am sure Nicki can handle herself, you might want to check from now on before you lay your head down on your pillow. I hear once those spiders get in and start showing themselves in the daylight, they start getting really comfortable around your home and coming out in droves...he probably was just the "scout". :-)MTLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436836221874403841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-15253629888519238622009-07-01T16:07:21.221-05:002009-07-01T16:07:21.221-05:00Mail me the next one...I need a new target for the...Mail me the next one...I need a new target for the range.Fireladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07829612138471392986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-33766798653451291232009-07-01T15:57:58.041-05:002009-07-01T15:57:58.041-05:00I can handle anything BUT spiders.I can handle anything BUT spiders.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-86796454609648660082009-07-01T12:09:30.917-05:002009-07-01T12:09:30.917-05:00LOL!
