Brodie doesn't eat them - but she does torture them >:D. I spotted a large one in the hall the other day there and tried to get Brodie past it without her seeing it - totally failed and the poor spider ended up getting chewed and pawed to death. She likes to pick them up and carry them about, occasionally spitting them out to watch them crawl about. I'm terrified of them, but don't like seeing this... Unfortunately if you go near her she'll pick them up and run off, so it's bye bye spider!

She will eat daddy longlegs though, they are a firm favourite of her :P

Yup, got one here too, especially anything that happens to be landed on the walls - he loves to squash them.  He's got a fascination for flies as well and jumps up the patio window to get them.  uggg!!   :005:

Pearl does this too  :005: last night she caught a huge spider in the kitchen and carried it round for ages - she was shaking her head so it must have tickled :005: finally, after being pounced on until it stopped moving she ate it - ewwwww!

Yes!  The other night I had to call Juno in to catch one because I'm a magnificent wimp and it was taunting me from the floor!

Yep, just last night I saw one running across the carpet. I quickly pointed it out to Pepper and he rushed over, put it in his mouth straight away and then spent the next few minutes rolling it around on the tip of his tongue. I half expected to see a leg or two pop out but fortunately Pepper must have decided it was worth swallowing after all.  :005: :005:

gemma too. picks them up and carries them. Spitting them out and picking up again. Final spitting out is followed with a paw squwish and quick chomp.

Oh yes, Jess just loves spiders, the bigger the better.  She chases them and eats them, she regards them as a tasty mobile snack, with built in entertainment factor.

And the grossness is extreme.  What does me in, is seeing the odd leg or two hanging out of Jess's mouth.  Ick ick ick....

Nope - Smudge never bothers with creepies (thank goodness) - gentle little chap, he prefers to leave spiders in peace in their websites  ;)
