Found this wolf spider husk today, check out those fangs!

Is “husk” the correct word? Discarded exoskeleton?

The former inhabitant is alive, larger, and nearby...

A distressing thought indeed.

My cat is straight up useless for catching spiders, when I try to get her to catch one she just stares at it, fascinated.

Cut back a few of her calories. She will hunt.

I mean, you picked it up, so you obviously felt differently than I would have.
