I absolutely could not pick a big spider up with my bare hand although
picking up moths and beetles to put them outside is not a problem.

A good few years ago, we had a cat who loved to eat them.

Ours used to do that, his favourite shock tactic was to eat one right
against the window on the outside of the glass Then sit there on the
window sill while the spiders legs still thrashed on the outside of
his lips while he "sucked it " ,let it run out and repeat .

Usaully when we were sat inches away on the inside of the window
having a meal. The *** knew exactly what he was doing.

I have a cat with attitude as well;~). Not seen her eat spiders yet,
though.
