Adorable Jumping Spider Faces

I love jumping spiders. They have always been easy going, as spiders go. If you need to move them out of the house, they never seem to mind that you are scooping them into a glass. Other spiders get all cranky and have attitude, when I try to do that.
And they are cute.

Too cute! It looks like a cartoon and reminds me of the spider in Madagascar that says "get it! get it!" when they are in the jungle

I *heart* jumping spiders!!!

Love Ugly Overload... and as I said over in their comments.....
I actually said aloud "OMG It's SO CUTE!!!" and started to giggle....
Never would've thought I'd be saying that about a spider, but, there it is... that spider is frackin adorable!.... just don't crawl/jump on me

NIve pics.

one adorable jumping spider is too small to hurt you but 1million tiny furry arachnids will do you in

Valid question: why does something being cute make it better? It just looks better, it isn't necessarily really any nicer, sweeter or more beneficial. What gives?

I'm wondering if that smiling spider pic you posted is photoshopped. It only has two eyes showing. If you follow the link it appears a similiar spider has more eyes on the front. The smile is also reversed. These are adorable pics though. I love them.

Cute but still creepy.

Those maybe jumping spiders but we get Wolf Jumping Spiders here that get about 1.5ft across and jump about 3-6ft.

I'm going to have to call photopshopped, too.

Looks shopped to me.

And zav, anything cute has to be good for you.

Yeah it's cute, and edited too. Only two eyes?? LOL...
Does this one look familiar?

Um. That's shopped, i think, But that's as far as i will go on this. I ran into one of these little guys on my upper cupboard door this morning when i went to make coffee. My guess is that he was looking for a bite to eat. When i came back to the pot to get a cup he was gone, but i did jet to see him jump between the cupboard and the wall before i walked away.

This photo is indeed shopped. The original is here: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4OYGjUrdllo/SWqzQWaBhgI/AAAAAAAAO4Y/SVtbbD5aB-8/s400/spider_eyes.jpg

OMG! cute but deadly with its friends

@srr and others who found the original photo. first of all, GREAT SLUETHING! second of all...i still think jumping spiders are cute. there's something rather endearing about them. check out other photos of jumping spiders and you'll see what i mean. i was in a cafe yesterday sitting next to a window and there was a little jumping spider crawling on the window. i'm sure the other patrons thought i was crazy 'cuz i started talking to the little fella! something about them makes them cute in a way that other spiders are not. read up on them too...they have INCREDIBLE telescopic vision. learning more about their biology and behavior makes them even more endearing and fascinating little predators.

I got a few of these little buggers cruising around my indoor garden. What should I feed them?
