Gross. I knew I shouldn't have opened this while I'm eating my lunch. Ticks are disgusting.

Reminds me of why I hate this time of year- the big orange flying ticks we call june bugs. Ewwww I'd almost rather find a real tick on me

my cat loves to eat june bugs. they are so freaky though. i tried to pick one up to throw it out the door, and its legs were all spiny. i screamed so loud when that leg touched me!

I just meant, that HUGE nasty thing, could have sucked her dry....

I was just kidding.....I tend to be a little too morbid sometimes...sorry

EEEEWWWW!!

Good thing you found that nasty thing and got it off her.

**bluekat** · 05-26-2005, 11:31 PM

EWW. Glad we don't have any of those around here! I hate those kinds of insects

Major had two like that last year. They were so sick. This year he hasn't had any that big. I pulled four off him tonight. They are so gross. We have this repellenty stuff, we haven't put it on him yet. We need to give him a bath and then put it on but its been raining every day...bleh. I can't wait to put in on him....it repels fleas and mosquitos too.
