No stupid stranger behavior - ever.

One of my cats, a great tabby idiot, is actually scared of creepy crawlies (particularly spiders), and runs and hides behind the sofa whilst the arachnaphobes in the household have to beat it to death with a book or shoe. Unless I'm there when I rescue it and place it outside!
That made me laugh. My cats aren't scared, they just aren't interested. I'll point out a bug and they'll look at it and go "eh.". My siamese will play with little creatures, but he never actually kills them. Just bats them around a bit. My other cat just wants food.

My dog was a bug killer, and spider killer, without being taught to do that. Bugs couldn't survive in my house when she was around...:).

I'm a bug and spider killer. They know this and avoid me, because if I see one, I will grab it and eat it.

Bon Apetite, or Guten Appetit. Sounds like an intriguing meal choice JM. :D
I just asked my mother about the spider/bat thing. It's considered bad luck to kill them because they are considered helpful in keeping the pest-bugs at bay. They eat flies, mosquitoes, etc. Makes sense, sort of...

It's illegal to kill bats in the UK. If they get into your loft, you aren't allowed to get rid of them you have to wait until they move out after their hibernation is over, then all you can do is attempt to stop them getting in again!
