Sit down and have a cup of tea.

Curious... Predictive text decided 'sit down' was supposed to read 'stuff Susan'
Who is Susan and why should we be leaving her to the mercy of the stick insects?

I believe the stick insect (known as Micky Mouse) broke the toilet to put me off its scent.

The stick insect small house tub now has stress marks from when I accidentally bent it in half while trying to spray them with water while they were trying to escape.
One of them has got quite big. One of this weekend's task is to purchase a bigger house for them and, er, a pair of women's tights.

Be gentle! They can't possibly need a bigger tank yet. They only need twice their length and a bit in height. If you put them in too large an enclosure they get stressed and can fall and hurt themselves. They will also be harder to find...

I just want to have the tank in hand for immediate moving when ready. I am also concerned I may have damaged their current house.
