critters

[helenic]

The summer months have apparently turned livejournal into some sort of virtual petting zoo. Thus far, innocently scrolling my friends page, in the last 24 hours I have been unexpectedly presented with the following:


evil_nick's mollusc baby octopus - cute, slimy, and strangely edible-looking.


_matt__'s kiiiiitten! small cat thing! so cuuuuuute! I love the way it hasn't quite worked out it needs to put all four paws on the ground. confused baby fuzzy creature! awwww!


edlwiess1's "camel cricket", apparently. What. The. Fuck. The carapace is quite pretty, but I totally wouldn't want to meet one in my bathroom.

Well, internets, what strange and wonderful creatures are you going to fling at me next? Which beasties will take to roaming the vast prairies of /~libellum/friends? If anyone's taking requests, I'd like more kittens, please, and golden lion tamarinds, and lesbians tigers, and penguins. And perhaps a pangolin, although they're slightly overrated (and nothing like Vestal Virgins).

ADORABLE kitten, even the first thingy is kinda cute, but that last one just makes me shudder. It's a sodding spider! KILL IT!! (no offence to the person who owns it...)

Okay well that makes more sense. I feel a bit silly now!
Anything that ugly deserves a painful death for making me go 'yeeeeeuuuurughhh' and shudder.
