I had no idea I was trolling so many people with the not-meow-cat post! But always nice to say HI!

Well you also trolled me because I clicked on the notification so fast in my excitement to meet the new furry family member 😂

Yowzer, I did not expect I would be cat-trolling so many people. Please accept my most sincere apologies! And, yes - monarch caterpillars are very much not furry.

I’ve been in WI for the past week for work things and my niece (and her parents) are now taking care of 19 little *cats* in various stages of development. The biggest ones really tear through the milkweed and poop A LOT!

Like, so much poop! In the few days I had these guys on the counter the size of their poop grew exponentially. In the wild, it does make it easier to spot them just by looking for piles of poop collected at the base of leaves. Also, HOPE YOU HAD FUN IN WISCONSIN! Were you here for the heat wave?

Lake many others, I was potentially very excited. sigh

(I also lived with two dogs and four cats for a number of years, so.)

Stacey, I didn't know how many people I was going to disappoint with this non-real-cat news! (Also, we have one dog and plenty enough fur - no more mammals in this house. Not sure how you coped with 6!)
