Hi all,
I rescued a house spider from drowning in our bathroom sink last night, thought it was dead so left it on a tissue in case it miraculously came back to life overnight. Long story short - it did, and my 5yo daughter has tasked me with keeping him in ‘spider hospital’ while she’s at school 🙈

Spidey is alive but very wobbly on his legs and seems really weak - any advice on what I can do to help the little guy out? I’ve given him a plate of water but he’s not really interested. Aside from trying to catch flies to feed him, is there anything I can actually do?
