Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

No cats here, Leo is safe!

I searched up common slugs and found it referred to as a Leopard Slug, though I see now Wikipedia says Tiger Slug is another common name for it. Is Tiger Slug a more common term here?

I also see that my one is only a baby, with adults 10cm-20cm long! Leo is probably about 7cm except when stretched out. I'll have to keep him well fed and see how big he gets!

Yeah I've always known them as tiger slugs. Yes they get pretty big, and dark. He will probably enjoy it if you feed him some kind of wet catfood, they also drink water.

He's got heaps of soggy food scraps, it seems to be a pretty ideal restaurant for him!
