Ok, I thought of posting this in the world's worst exterminators thread, but I felt it deserved it's own post.
I was laying in bed when I noticed the cats batting at something in the hallway. I figured they were just trying to smack one of the annoying little kittens on the head.
BUT NO!!!!
Moments later they chased a HUGE BROWN BUG INTO OUR BEDROOM. I didn't have my glasses on so that's all I could make out. My BF is no great man when it comes to bugs and he started screaming too. He managed to throw a glass over it and trap it and then ran screaming back to the bed. We hid from the bug by getting under a blanket on our bed together for a while.
Finally after I yelled at my bf enough he went and drowned the bug in the bathroom.
We're pretty sure it was a Potato Bug (also known as a Jueruselums Cricket apparently) which is just about the ugliest thing on the planet, I think. I'm not sure if I'm glad the cats found it to be taken care of, or wish they'd just taken care of it themselves!
And I keep thinking, what if it had friends?
