It's hard for me not to watch it all day when I'm home, because my apartment has only one room and it's just right there all the time, on the same table I keep my hairbrushes, tissues, wallet, keys, etc. Which is great for me! I don't move or touch the enclosure except maybe once a week when I gently lift the enclosure to clean the table under it. My daily life doesn't seem to disturb the tarantula at all.
I top up the water dish when it gets low. I toss in a cricket every week or so, and shortly after I go in and pick up bits if there are any. I only handled it once, on the day I brought it home, in order to fix up the KK it came with. I let it walk around on my hands a bit while moving it from the enclo, to a tupperware, and back again. Just had to get it out of my system, I guess >< I'll probably handle it a bit the next time I rehouse it, if it seems calm enough to walk out onto my hand, but otherwise I just let it be. It's safe and comfy in there. And it's a pretty active little guy, so I get plenty of enjoyment just watching.
