<br />the bad part is - it seemed to be getting really weak & dying, so i put it in a cardboard box... now its gone! i don't know whether the cat heard it scratching around and ate it, or if its hiding in the rafters waiting to attack... :confused:

Its either a cicada (sp), or one of them thar a-lee-on scouts looking for new abductees.<br /><br />On second thought, it looks like a baby skeeter. If its a Wisconsin strain, it will be about 7 inches long when it grows up. It will be easy to find then.
