P365 Day 157: Hidey spidey

One of the benefits of having two cats is that there's a swift and sure death to any unwanted vermin in our household. How much bug is left behind, however, is completely up to whichever cat is playing exterminator that day. And if it's particularly unlucky day for us, the parts they do eat get regurgitated on the rug. (That's usually Joe's doing. Fred is too lazy to eat bugs; her general M.O. is to sit on them until she gets bored or they die of suffocation.)

That's where this gets weird. Our catnip-filled orange spider has gone from eight legs to five (well, five and a nub), but I have yet to see even one green "spider" leg come out of either end of either cat. Pardon the visual.

Paul gave his last exam today. No rest for the wicked, however; he's going to be spending his Christmas break doing research, and will be traveling to Memphis for a few days right after New Year's. No idea whether I'm going with him. After spending Thanksgiving in Memphis, I'm content to just ride out the hustle and bustle from right here at home.
