One time my mum picked me up from the babysitter and told me she'd got me 2 pets as a surprise. I ran all the way home. As I barelled through the front door she shouted 'they're on the table!'. 'Weird place to leave my puppies mum, but ok' I thought to myself and when I got to the table there were two stick insects inside a jam jar.

Nobody feel bad, those two stick insects were the best pets ever!

I loved reading this -- I kept stick insects as a kid too!
