    Fun fact: I promised myself that I’d find a jumping spider this spring to care for and observe. One literally walked down the wall in front one me and presented itself while I was working at my desk earlier. 🥰

    I will say I've watched a lot of tarantula UA-camrs I won't mention them, however I very much appreciate how gentle you are when you rehome any of your creatures. I like how soft and careful you are with them, I wish I seen that quality more in others. Thank you so much!

    That is a watermelon pepperomia! They are adorable!! But trust me you wanted this one instead of a fittonia (nerve plant) as they can be tempermental!temperamental!! Cute set ups! 💚

    2:39 thats a type of peperomia! Not sure what variety it is off the top of my head, but it is definitely a peperomia and has slightly different care needs than nerve plants 🥰💓 love the vid per usual girl, its sooo precious🌷 theres nothing sweeter than planties, mini tarantula enclosures, and baby little T’s 🥺💝🔆

    I was holding my breath during the freshly molted tarantula's rehousing 😅. Every spider I deal with I have this paranoid idea that they're gonna just randomly bolt somewhere and that would terrify me with a newly molted tarantula lol. But the new enclosures look so nice, they're gonna love them.

    Kat!! I pulled up one of your videos about a year ago to get over my arachnophobia. You got me head over heels into tarantulas, I've since started keeping a few house spiders (including a black widow!) and I finally got two tarantula slings at the start of this year!! One of them molted today and I caught progress shots on camera!!! Thank you for swaying me over to arachnids, they are incredibly charming animals and it has been an absolute blast! 🕷🧡

    I am not a huge fan of arachnids. I can handle spiders (more on screen than in person) better than I used to, and I’m getting better with scorpions (still really don’t like them). Stumbled across your channel a couple weeks ago and have binged old videos. Tarantulas and jumping spiders a lot cuter than other spiders. I see jumping spiders a lot here in FL. One took up residence in my driver’s side mirror for a day or two.

    Two things: 1) Minus the glasses, tattoos, and septum piercing you bear a striking resemblance to my sister. Kind of neat. 2) I am currently jobless and you have me wanting a tarantula enough that I'm looking at how much it would cost to buy a G pulchra sling and a Tarantula Cribs enclosure for it. I'm also not a terribly patient person, and impulse buyer when I really want something.

      They can deff be pricy. But to be honest, the spider won't care if they're in a home made storage container with ventilation, an old popcorn container or a nice glass or acrylic enclosure. So if you don't want to or can't spend the money on it, no need husbandry wise :) good luck
