Diversity within my home

I have lots of diversity of species in my home. There are three humans,2 cats, one fish, four house plants(one of which is a carnivorous plant),spiders,ants, fruit flies,and even some lovely fleas(luckily only on the cats).I have some seaweed that I collected,there's some algae in the fish tank, and who knows our cats may have some worms.We have observed some aphids on our carnivorous plant(which it might have eaten because we don't see them anymore).We recently had a caterpillar to watch it go into it's chrysalis,but our cat's ate it. Lot's of diversity and cycles of life existing in our home, it's just one big happy family.

    Cats are so funny. We've adopted a kitten twice in the past few years, but they both died. They are both a part of the backyard ecosystem, though, as they were both buried back there. I think enough time has gone by now that I am looking forward to having a cat friend here. I would love to trade the mice and rats for a cat!
