Last night, we were eating a snack while watching TV when suddenly hubby yelled "OMG!" -- at first I thought he'd dripped salsa on the couch, but realized that that probably wouldn't have made him actually yell. I noticed that he was looking at the floor, so I leaned over to see, and there was my Mexican Red-Knee Tarantula ambling innocently along across the living room carpet!
He was easily caught and returned to his enclosure. Hubby told me later that his first thought upon seeing him was actually "I sure hope that's one of ours."
