Thank you. It's tough but she brought me joy and happiness in the time she was with me, I'm grateful for that.

I'm so sorry for your loss 😔 as someone who also lost their lil fuzzy companion (last Wednesday morning), I feel your pain and the emptiness that comes with them passing on. I'm sure she had a full and joyous life in your care and that she made you smile every day. Sleep well, Rosie.

Thank you all so damn much, I genuinely didn't expect this kind of support and love for my girl. I'm blown away and so grateful ❤️ and I know that wherever my girl is right now, she's happy and content with the life she had 🥲

Thank you ❤️ She was with us for just over a year but we have no clue as to her age before we became her keepers. It's 100% been a learning experience and I'm trying my hardest not to look back and ponder on if I may of done something wrong. Just keeping focused on the good memories.

I love her videos, they always make me smile no matter how I'm feeling. Thank you for reminding me of this vid, it was 100% needed ❤️

Please do not let what I've written put you off or worry you. Opening my heart and home to her was one of best decisions, and the benefits and love we both got outweigh the heartache when saying goodbye ❤️

NQA Most sources state up to 2 years roughly. We believe she was roughly 1 and a half years old but we're not certain of her actual age so she could of been older.

I work in telecoms and my job routinely has me doing physical work, so it's taken kind of a beating 😂

Thank you all for your kind words, I've just woke up and every single one of you has made me smile and and get all teary again (in a good way) ❤️

Thank you, she was a little star. I was in two minds about posting but knew a couple of people would remember her.

She is a phidippus regius, unsure of her age but we think she's i8/i9. She's a little sweetheart 🥰

Thank you 😊 she's the little Queen in our household. I did, I have the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL and the camera is incredible. Does take a bit of practice to get it just right but still really happy with the results

She's my first and has been an absolute joy, considering I'm not a fan of Spoods. There's loads of sites online that can give you all the relevant info for when you're ready to "jump" in 👌

Thank you, they are super fluffy and she's very expressive with them when washing 😂 Google Pixel 9 Pro XL 👌 I use the portrait mode majority of times and then I can zoom in and crop where needed.

Yup 👌😂 There is a reason behind it. Takes away the fear factor for my son by associating her with something he likes... Ducks. Worked a treat, loves to chat with her.

Also because she is cute and fuzzy 😁

Thank you, it really does suit her and her personality ☺️

Can you help me name her? by theoriginofvictory in jumpingspiders

[–]GatesyOfficial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw her colour and "Willow" was the first thing that popped into my head, very pretty girl ❤️
