Message: <blockquote data-quote="Silverkita" data-source="post: 234069" data-attributes="member: 48702">Thanks for the welcome! I agree, my dog is very comforting, while the inverts (and fish) are very soothing to care for and watch.Haha thanks for the warning... might already be too late for me!!! My "wishlist" is constantly growing. I keep telling myself that I need to be sensible, and 8 is already a fair few to get in the span of a month or so. But then the other part of my brain says "What's one or two more?" <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /> (But I must be sensible!!)They're such fascinating creatures. I regret not starting sooner. I love my mantises but their short lifespan is my least favourite part. I like that my Ts should be with me a good while. They might not care much for me in return but I certainly get attached.I bet the Heteropoda is cool. I'm not sure I'd be able to handle how quick they supposedly are though!! Beautiful species though.</blockquote>
