icing sugar is actually good for tarantulas.

It's one of the things you can use (in an emergency, if nothing else to hand)to stop them bleeding as they have no coagulants in their "blood" (it's kind of clear, not red)

That is fascinating!  How do you know?

Lol, I can picture it.
I have some advice for new cat owners, 'Don't try and wrap their presents when they are in the room!!!! especially those containing catnip.' Silly me. It was a bit wild in my home earlier.

Let me give you some advice.  Don't leave an open box of icing sugar on the kitchen worktop.  Cats and icing sugar is not a good combination.  Take my word for it  :innocent:
