Well, despite our efforts to keep kittens and puppies out of the house we had to cave in today...
When we went to the DFAC, Isa found a potato beetle (leptinotarsa juncta) in the fake plants and decided to rescue it. It seemed to enjoy being rescued and stuck around for a very long time. Since it hung out for an hour I finally told her she could keep it.. so he ended up in a bottle for the transport and then was transferred into a see-through critter box with a lid that lets air through but not him.
After getting educated on the internet I asked in YahooAnswers if someone had any pointers for us so that "Kartoffelbug" would have a happy life. I got some great answers but also some strange ones ("you should check with local authorities"... ha ha ha.. that was great!).
So he´s here to stay and we´ll see if he likes it better than certain death at the DFAC. At the moment he seems happy and enjoying his tomato leaves that I sacrificed :-D
Wonder what´s next in the pet sector though.. lol
