When I die I hope I come back as a spider and you find me in your bathroom and make me a cute lil house 😭

[@Reptiliatus]

Welcome, Winona! She’s so sweet! Wednesdays legacy will always exist but this feels like a wholesome passing of the torch. I can’t wait to see how Winona will inspire the masses to love and appreciate spiders 🙏🏼🕷️✨!

[@timoconnor2618]

There is a jumping spider around my door I'm trying to catch today. Have enclosure ready

[@MadailinBurnhope]

what kind? they don't all do well in captivity

[@tarantulakat]

They do very well in captivity.

[@blindshellvideos]

@@tarantulakat why not recommend to let it live outside where it belongs, instead of suggesting to capture a wild animal just so tim is not so bored?

[@tarantulakat]

@@blindshellvideos because catching a jumping spider on your own property and keeping it as a pet shouldn’t be villainized when we have thousands of people squishing them on site or spraying their entire properties down with pesticides killing all life. As long as all laws are followed it’s not very damaging to take a spider from your own house inside, and it’s a fantastic way to get people into keeping spiders or at minimum appreciating/respecting them

[@blindshellvideos]

@@tarantulakat ty answer. yes that argument is fair but is there some way that one can actually know if the spider is happy (since their intellect is limited probabyl) or will it be sad because its deprived of e.g. mating.

[@oblivenus]

winona is a lovely name! that was the name of my black widow that passed away not too long ago!

[@TowerMom]

I love brown recluse! I had a sweet interaction with one when I was in army basic training. I had fallen asleep during a field training exercise and woke up to a recluse just chilling on my thigh, using my warmth to get their own sleep on. We had been warned about how "vicious" they were (my basic training was in Missouri, btw), but this little buddy just wanted to get warm. 😅

[@Dante-ly1zg]

That's so heart warming ❤ {i like re watching so don't mind me😂}

[@wildmoonchild9404]

Winona is soooo cute! Your videos have been helping me with my arachnophobia. I never thought I’d call a spider cute but when you got that close up shot of Winona I went “awwwww!” And I genuinely think she’s adorable! Thank you for these videos. They are a very big help!

[@senseidamention7133]

The cicadas are NEXT LEVEL. If the movie “The Fly” was a cicada, this would be mortifying

[@BrianandAmandasReptileJourney]

Haha right

[@kathryndarcey08]

I dont know if I am ready for a recluse. My dad got bitten by one on his leg. He had a huge hole that had to be packed till it healed. I will just happily watch for updates from you for now.

[@Fahrenheit4051]

I'm all set with recluses. They're very cute, but I just don't think it's worth it. Spitting spiders (Scytodidae) are close relatives, and are not dangerous. Same eye pattern, plus gorgeous markings. They catch their prey by shooting silk from their chelicerae, and it's very fascinating to watch them hunt, even if the strands are too small to see. Certain species may be able to be housed communally, but I would of course check with an expert before attempting this. I have two spitting spiders, named Jordan and Jalapeño.

[@HoneyBeeHeidi100]

Welcome beautiful Winona!!! She is so pretty!!! 🕷️🩶🖤🩶

[@PaddyEdwardC]

Velvet Spiders are so cute 🥰 🕷️

[@susanmartin3762]

Her face is adorable.. not cranky. She's so calm. Wow!

[@TheHowlingWolfHeart]

Her little wave hello omg I can't with the cuteness! 😍

[@anicarmela]

I saved and released a Brown Recluse last year. She was hanging out on my ceiling and I saw her when I woke up. I felt like she was a very polite spider, as she could have walked right onto us while we were sleeping from me stupidly leaving the window open, but instead she went completely around us and chose to chill on the ceiling. So I put her in a cup and put her back outside.

[@Spice080]

Very polite little spider indeed

[@baconbacon7619]

One of my Facebook friends shared a post that warned it was the season for deadly brown recluses. It said to warn everyone of the dangers, and what to look out for, to save their lives. I hit them with the knowledge I learned, mostly from this channel.

[@januk7725]

i love velvets, they are gorgeous, Winona is a really good name

[@HaleyScott232444]

I see spiders around my house and refuse to try and catch them because I'm scared of having babies

[@susanmartin3762]

That spider is HUGE!!

[@dazsmith4958]

There was the British tarantula society expo yesterday, and I managed to get a Gandanameno sp!!! I'm so happy with all of my purchases. I called mime Incy, because I think it's a crime that I've owned over 100 spiders over the past 5 years and I've never had an Incy wincy spider 😂.

[@softeisia]

welcome winona

[@TheAlexstiles]

Wynona is absolutely adorable!!! 🥰 🕸️🕷️

[@requiemofagoldenexperience9851]

Can you please do a video showing how you "store" your Tarantulas? Like where you put them and how you organize them.

[@Gothicccchick]

I only ever heard cicadas when visiting my grandparents every summer growing up so idk why but I actually find them kinda soothing. And no I’m not okay mentally 😂

[@bobbymoss6160]

"No escape!" 💀💀 Run away spider friends and be free!!!

[@pattykochenower4222]

That was so sweet of Sydney! Winona is adorable!

[@krisgibbons7008]

She's my Winona is one of my fav Fall Out Boy songs!! what a beautiful girl!!

[@joybourne5913]

I was wondering what the scribble on my new enclosure box was 😂 neat!

[@tinacubitt8445]

I’ve had a brown recluse in my collection for two years now and she has never tried to do anything to me. They’re so cool!

[@jboy8646]

I had an adult brown recluse spider blocking my front door. It was halfway on my door and halfway on my doorframe. I was very nervous and caught off guard 😂😂😂

[@tonydeluna8095]

She’s one beautiful spider Kat

[@dawnt7950]

Aww!!! Congratulations!!! Winona is soo cute!!!! That brown recluse is very cool as well!!!

[@BuddyTheBudgie200]

At my house there is only one cicada in a tree! 😂😂😂

[@naymeequillo]

She is soooo pretty!!! Love the enclosures too.

[@richardbriansmith8562]

[@ZeroCoolYT]

That Spider reminds me of Venom, from the movie

[@Zhannon345]

Such a sweet gift, you have some really lovely friends, Kat 💜 Welcome Winona, I hope the future breeding journey goes well ❤ she's so stinking cute!

[@midnyte6195]

We got brown recluse spiders under our house but I did find a garter snake in my room and was easy to catch too 🥴

[@Jdotcreeper]

Same reputation with black widows I saw one when i traveled to kamloops Big female and ton of unluckiy male carcasses I took some pics of her and left her alone Its nice to let people know about whats accurite and what's miss information about venomous species Also your new baby is adorable and wish to have one of my own velvet spiders one day For now i have my 3 tarantula babies 😊

[@Invader_Zimi]

Welcome to the family!!!

[@ChantalsCritters]

Great video

[@SING4ABS0LUTI0N]

i would love to be sent an unmarked random spider yes please kat 😂

[@mep2879]

Well first off you have a new subscriber with me today. Your video was on my recommendation section. And I love spiders. They are so interesting and unique. My first one was a tarantula. I called him creeps. Seems like your channel is very informative and fun at the same time. I'll definitely be watching more of your channel. Have a wonderful day.

[@erinhayley9948]

Aww Winny❤❤

[@spoofyking]

if i had the proper space i'd definlty get a veltvite spider wow she is gorges she even has shiny lil fangs she look super happy & healthy I love that you gave a house spider a home to makes my heart happy i love lil creatures to

[@rachelshaferly5524]

Thanks to you I love jumping spiders.

[@WVR12]

Enjoying your channel here in Australia, learning so much about spiders 👍

[@Rio56780]

I caught a tiny lil orange spider

[@candyscott489]

Unexpected Love !! 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

[@LukeMcGuireoides]

Jack's World of Wildlife has some awesome brown recluse content. He gave himself a bite on two seperate occasions and has two videos on each, regular and extended versions, and he documents the experience over the course of the healing process. It took a lot of effort for him just to get the spiders to bite, and the wounds were rather mild.

[@tarantulakat]

love jacks content 🫶

[@caughtafaygo]

thats freakin awesome you reclused Tom lol get reclused on Tom!

[@Puffstrashkindom]

OOOOOOOOO She looks just like her!

[@chantalspdrlvr]

I think the word you were looking for is aesthetic the soil is there plainly for aesthetic

[@jenniferaustin6778]

Hi Winona!!!

[@holliemmx88]

Welcome to the T Kat fam Wynona! 🎉🫶🏼😊

[@Canadiangirl896]

I have tons of cellar spiders I call them silk cause there cool I'm not a huge spider lover but jumping spiders are neat

[@Emily-Tater]

Beautiful baby Winona ❤ I want a spood so badly ❤

[@bugtalk84]

[@lindseybotelho]

She's beautiful 🖤

[@deedfayez]

She’s beautiful oh my goodness!! Hope you’re doing alright Kat!

[@pamelahouze7163]

Winona is gorgeous

[@sofritotv6549]

What’s up from Orlando. New sub here. I’m def gonna buy one of your cages. And use your code. I’ll figure out the spider after but they look amazing and made me want to get into this. Thx again

[@jojosharp5872]

She's beautiful 😍

[@Skykristal]

I'm dying at that "uargh" 😂

[@susanmartin3762]

Girl! They Bite and they EEF YOU UP! NOT MISUNDERSTOOD! I was bitten by one many years ago and I still have my huge scar! What fun are they to keep? They nice and kill food abd hide again. Bad choice Kat.

[@peterhough4463]

Welcome to the family Winona !~!~!~!!~!~ ( Hopefully you will get a stuffy namesake as well )

[@koffinkat666]

Congrats on the new Baby Wednesday AKA Winona

[@coffee_gaming]

We know them as violin spider's in south africa, never seen one myself.

[@themsdwallace]

Ive found 2 recluse so far this spring, one was already dead, the other i moved to a nice spot outside with plenty of hiding spots and bugs. I really should keep the next one i find.

[@prissilou]

Looking forward to the grandbabies...

[@chrisjones9867]

No way am I keeping one!!!

[@shaunarundle8614]

If she has babies you should name one Morticia and continue the cycle.

[@cyndizebra6119]

We have Hobo spiders here in Idaho. They are so incredibly fast! They are also huge and VERY AGGRESSIVE! I have had them run AT me. Ugh. After watching your channel, I always feel bad dispatching them, but I’ve been bit in my bed by one and it was NO FUN!! Their bites can cause huge necrotic areas. So yeah, I don’t even catch and release these guys because of their aggressive nature.

[@gloriajackson2021]

These cicadas are deafening lol. But I am surrounded by woods. Are they going to be here all summer?

[@tarantulakat]

Prob the next 4-6 wks!

[@Phoenixhunter157]

Ughhhhh. I really want a brown recluse! If you or anyone knows of anyone who sells them please lemme know. Thank you.🙏🏽

[@angela_tarantulas]

Oh gosh, so mean to send him the brown recluse 🙈🤣 I’m glad we don’t have them here in Europe… 😂 But I love all types of jumping spiders. I‘ve got different species and they are so cute. I love to interact with them, because I can’t and don’t do it with my big tarantulas and most scorpions.

[@Demolitiondude]

Now wait for the real winnoa rider show up.

[@Jaded2Plays]

Cute❤!

[@mikeg7443]

hi there from ottawa canada . love all that you do . just watched an old vid of "dumpster"spider was wondering how he was doing ? hopefully i didnt miss something . have a great day and thank you 🕷❣

[@jayrice5736]

H-hello there, Winona.

[@KayBX]

I’ve incredibly terrified responders, but I’m finding them cuter more and more said watching your videos and now I have two huntsman in my house (before I would’ve sprayed). I still don’t want them to come anywhere near me, but I think that’s progress? 😅😅.

[@lindseymercuria3971]

Howwwwww did Tom deserve a free range recluse??? 😭

[@mariestubbs4606]

Wow Kat Winona is gorgeous ...

[@avaogara]

Haven't heard the cicadas yet.?hope so soon I love their sound..do you have a Mexican red knee tarantula? seen one at my local pet store very cool

[@youtubeopinion]

Hey Kat, in your short titled "Hyllus giganteus jumping spider babies emerge!", I love the music in the background, so my question is, who is it.

[@isabellab-c5351]

I live in Australia (aka the spider capital of the world) and ironically I have really bad arachnophobia, but Winona is genuinely adorable even though she still gives me some heebies and jeebies

[@BuddyTheBudgie200]

How do i care for my old jumping spider? She won't eat.

[@ZeroCoolYT]

Hi Kat

[@wisconsinguy4612]

I have a female wolf spider I found at work and she just made an egg sack. the vent slots in the encloser are big enough where the babies or fruit flies could escape could I tape gauze on the outside to cover the holes and still have air flow. I want to keep the female but I will probably let the babies go in the wild. any tips or ideas would be welcome later Kat

[@603wright2]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@cb3391]

I have camped with so many recluse, and only got bit once, I think I rolled over on them in my sleep

[@cb3391]

Such a cute face.💕 I love her.

[@cb3391]

I have to ask, were you be adopting out any?

[@cb3391]

Winona💕

[@santoroaquatics5038]

8 comment you are the best KZbinr ever kat keep it up you always inspire me every day 💪👍💯💯👍💪💪

[@Lisa-eu9fy]

🕷♥️♥️♥️🕷

[@LeslieWoodard-nh5rz]

I have a signed katpack I got from an expo in march 💜💜💜

[@natalierichardson4958]

You inspired me to get one, but my mum would say no😢

[@joshuarosenblatt]

Winona’s Big Brown Recluse. (Little Primus joke, couldn’t help myself)

[@Fahrenheit4051]

How many recluses do you have in that container? I only see one.

[@Oozaru85]

Wednesdays legacy will live on now.
