It was only a matter of time until one of these little guys was created. Kudos to the scientists who figured out how to blend spider and chipmunk so well. It really is an accomplishment. Last week when the little guy, nicknamed Katchja, after one of the scientists daughters, was being shown off at the latest Phobia Convention, several psychologists showed a lot of interest in him. “I think that using something like this… [I] might be able to cure some of my patients of their arachnophobia,” (Dr. George Stranopulous, Zyberg Institute). Here’s hoping that little “Katchja” will be able to make the world a more friendly spider place.
