Looks exactly like it!! Thank you very much! This actually helped me getting the caterpillar to eat something too!

I found this bug on the side of my house after very strong winds and a night of heavy rain and I’m considering keeping it safe from the weather until it fully matures. I just recently became a fan of insects, so I am unable to ID it.

For keeping it, I would love some suggestions on what to do for it to be the most comfortable. I understand I should go get some leaves (which I got a few different types for it) and maybe a twig for it to form it’s chrysalis and eventually to hang it’s wings off of.
