stick it.
So.
We got some
NEW PETS!
116 new pets to be exact.
I'll tell you about 101 of them later (not dalmations. I wish. Oh, I wish), but now I'm going to tell you about the first fifteen. Our fifteen
STICK BUGS!
(Or, 'stick insects' if you prefer.)
Every time I pass their enclosure it's like Where's Waldo, but with sticks (bugs). A more rewarding pet-type I could not imagine.
They are all female, all green, and all skinny. They eat ivy and bramble, the two most available forms of foliage in this country. They grow by hanging off leaves and dripping themselves out of their old, too small, bodies.
And, they look like sticks.
