BugAttraction | Missy Gets a Drink - Cat Faced Orb Weaver - Araneus Gemmoides - Slo-Mo begins at 2:00 @Bugattraction | Uploaded October 2018 | Updated October 2024, 8 hours ago.
Missy is a Cat Faced Orb Weaver. She has been a house guest since saving her from an earlly freeze. She has been quite content to stay in an uncovered aquaruim where she routinely spins a beautiful web inside. I feed her crickets and the occasional wax-worm, but she also catches the occasional loose fly, and even a pesky Box Eleder bug form time to time. Jumping Spiders are considered much cuter, and are certainly more interactive, but Missy is quite passive. I can even gently (very gently) stroke the tiny hairs on the back of her abdomen and she doesn't seem to mind at all. Like many of the other creatures I once feared, I've discovered she seems to sense intentions. She recognizes I am no threat, and responds without fear or threats of her own. She really is quite remarkable.
