Bob...!
When I was home, I witnessed the single stupidest act of pet dumbassery, ever.
And, to my surprise, it came from Bob. I would have pegged Squeeky of the many vet bills, or even Mousie, who did manage to dye herself purple once. But no. Bob.
Bob was taking his evening stroll, as he always does. I was packing my bags next to his tank. I guess he got curious and decided to come "see" me by climbing the side of the tank and pressing his face against the glass. So I'm face to face with fluff and toes and I giggle, because Bob looks absolutely ridiculous when he's hanging from the wall. Perhaps this offended him. Perhaps he simply decided to show off since he had my attention. I do not know. But all of a sudden, I am watching a 3-inch spider do a perfect little dive into an inch of water.
Yes. A tarantula made a high-dive into his water dish.
He sat there for a moment, wiggled a toe to make sure there was still water, stood, shook off (as best a spider can), and wandered away to continue his walk as if nothing had happened.
If he had been off by even a centimeter, I would have been cleaning him out of the peat moss.
I have the dumbest pets. (._.)

At least the been only climbs into his dish when it's dry. XD (I think he is fascinated by the strange new island that rises occasionally from the sea.)

The water just kinda moved out of Bob's way. X3
