A new batch of monarch cats!

August 8th, 2007

I have an entirely new nursery of monarch caterpillars. The other cats were full grown, and were gone in a couple of days, off to complete their transformation into beautiful monarchs. These are the assortment pack. There are little tiny, tiny babies, medium and one large. I guess those eggs hatched.

The butterflies are the reason I went organic. I wanted to create a non-toxic, safe home for them and I think it’s mission accomplished.

Monarch Monarch caterpillar

I have two adult monarchs that I’ve seen. The first one didn’t like me much and would fly away when I approached. But they’re getting used to me and now allow me to softly stroke their wings as they feed. That is one of my greatest pleasures, petting my monarchs. It’s soothing.
