[Rods] - stupid names, tell me about it! |

I dunno. My cat is pretty good at catching flies herself. |

Methinks Anabelle is an anteater - you've been sold a dud, [bliss]. |
|

Sorry - I thought you had two. |

Sheesh, she catches them like most cats, by leaping in the air and clapping her paws on them (this generally disables them, whereupon they fall to the ground and she eats them up). My old cat used to catch butterflies like this, but since we live in an apartment building, Annabelle doesn't much get out where butterflies roam. |

I live in Florida, which is flying-insect central in the spring and summer. Even with the large population of small outdoor lizards, we still have plenty of surplus bugs. Now being that all of the newbies in town with their sprays and junk have gotten rid of most of the nice bug-eating bats, I think your invention is a good idea - most apartments won't let you keep dogs or cats, so an exotic lizard or two (with bug-catcher) could be the next "in-style" hot seller as pets go. Might need big lizards though - I caught a couple of cockroaches trying to pry off my hubcaps the other day - good thing I had my pistol or they woulda kicked the crap outta me with that crowbar. |
