A Void of Little Brain

Neko found a large banana slug on his walk today. So of course he tried to eat it. He’s not as bright as his sister.



Will he learn anything from this incident? Highly doubtful.

What happens when a cat tries to eat the slug? Is that the slug all over his mouth or just lots of slime from the slug? Not being familiar with banana slugs... or cats for that matter, I'm curious to find out.

He's got the best expression on his face, though!

That's slug slime all over his face (and his front paws too). The banana slugs secrete a mucus that quickly sets into a rubbery, stretchy goo, kind of like that stuff they bind some books with. Not that it stopped Neko, who wanted to just keep going back for more!

Is it just as sticky to get off? I can't imagine it would taste very good. It looks like rubber cement.

That's exactly what it's like. It stretches and stretches then sproingles back if you don't keep pulling. The slime gave way before his hair did, though, so his face isn't bald!
