Day 725, Eight Eyed Kitten

Of all the spiders we find around our home, these little guys seem least threatening, almost as cute if one could use that term to describe an arachnid.

Jumping spiders are aptly named and will make frog like leaps covering hundreds of times their own size. I think this in combination with their tight jerky movements makes them seem less like a spider and more like a playful kitten, albeit a kitten with eight eyes!
