There’s a slug in my kitchen right now, working as energetically as a slug can on a stray piece of kibble. I’ve checked a couple of times, and the kibble is getting smaller.
I usually grab the slugs and flush them, but I’m letting the little guy go for now.
Did you know slugs have orgies in the moonlight? It’s true. They nearly covered my best friend’s birdbath one night, writhing and sliding around one another in truly orgiastic fashion. There were hundreds of them, glistening in the light of a full moon.
I’m sure it must have been an amazing sexperience. For a slug.
That’s nothing, they eat cat (and fox) poop too. My friend has a lawn where turds regularly appear - he just ignores them and the slugs take care of the problem.
On the way in, on the way out, it’s all good from a slug’s perspective.
Ever try to hit a slug with a tennis racket? I did. Scooped it up, flung it in the air and whack. Spent the next 15 minutes cleaning slug bits from my hair and clothes.
Slugs will eat cat food.
Slugs will eat cat poop.
Slugs will eat your cat, when he is dead.
Someday, slugs will eat you!
So, be nice to your slugs.
Or, they might not wait.
