Then I wont send you a picture of a pet I had to get rid of last year because everyone was afraid of her - "Charlotte" - my tarantula! One of my cats I lost last year would spend hours watching her (yes, I kept her in a terrarium) but she was tame enough to walk around on me if she was in a good mood....) (tarantulas arent venemous to people - just hurt if they bite cause they do have some big teeth!)
I've heard that Australia has some of the nastiest spiders - no thank you! (dont you have one that will come in the home and attack a person? - keep em down under!)
