My parents brought their three pets down to Virginia this weekend, in anticipation of their move in 3 weeks. My friend Allison kindly took in their cats, Dumbledore and Jubilee, as Ole and Audrey didn't want to share their home with other cats. But, we are hosting Shelob the tarantula. Noah is very interested in the "big spider." I've never been squeamish about insects or spiders, and I don't want Noah to be either, though he knows he's not allowed to touch. Just to be safe, we're keeping her out of reach. Though, the top to her aquarium is taped down and her venom is not strong at all. Supposedly, her bite would feel like a bee sting, but I don't want to chance it. Actually, she's a rather boring pet. She often sits entirely still for hours on end, eats once every 6 months or so, and doesn't come out of her cage.
