Hmmm...looks like some kind of moth. I know most of the butterfly cats and usually the really furry ones like that are moths. Which can still be lots of fun to raise but don't touch unless you know what kind it is because many of them sting (especially the fuzzy ones)!

My Grandma laughed so hard at me when I was in WV and I wanted to raise a Catalpa moth (she called it a Catalpa worm). I was curious! And there were like hundreds of them! I thought it was cool, but Grandma was like, "You're raising fish bait." Moths can be cool, too.
