So, I just found a wounded lady bug; it's back wing is broken. When it tries to fly away the wing sticks out wrong and there's an indentation on the red wing shell.

So now it's my office pet for the summer. Going to try and make a nice little habitat for it. But he/she needs a name.

Right now I'm thinking Francis from A Bug's Life.

Any other suggestions?

Going the guy in drag route, I say Ms. Noxeema Jackson after Wesley Snipes' character's name in To Wong Foo :)

Francis it is! :)

This morning Francis has gone for a bit of a walk around the jar, got some water and honey from the napkin I placed in there.

Later today and this weekend will be placing a water soaked raisin in there for the weekend. :)

When I first saw the title of this thread, I thought you had bought a VW Beetle, and I was sad that you had made a terrible mistake.

Now that I see that's an ACTUAL bug, I'm very happy. =) Long live Francis!

Please make sure it's an herbivorous ladybug before you feed it that. The vast majority of them are predatory

Better find an aphid infested rose bush, STAT!

Not to fear Charley! Francis has been released back into the wild... sort of. :)
I was heading out of town last Friday morning with a friend and remembered there were rose bushes at my friends house that were in bloom, so I transplanted Francis on the roses the morning before I left.

Was fun having the little critter on my desk for a day though. :D

So Francis is now gone. Long live Francis!
