Watch out for those Caterpillars
First Jack Shrew had a mysterious limp. Then Boudreaux began walking without his right back leg. Not far behind was Pierre walking around without his front left paw. To our horror... all of the dogs had walked on caterpillars in the French Quarter. One by one, they were all walking around with a limp. We noticed people carrying their dogs through the streets. Oh what a site! The caterpillars are striking at all the pooches in the French Quarter. This is WAR!
Word to the wise... watch your pooches. Caterpillar season is here in the South and they give nasty stings!

You say the "caterpillars" are biting your dogs? I thought you were going to cut back on your drinking.
Happy Easter!!!
Are you talking about the dreaded stinging caterpillars?

I haven't seen any, yet, but believe they are lurking about since some leaves have been eaten away on our drake elms!
I've been hit with them before. The last time was last spring when I walked through the yard barefoot and stepped on one. It's painful like a wasp sting. Treat it like you would a wasp sting.
