Found this guy sitting on my windowsill, is it a mosquito?

Small black bug found on my cat.

I apologize for the bad photo but it is very small and my camera sucks so it’s hard to get a good photo of, I’ll try my best to describe it. It’s very small and black (though I managed to find a white colored one but that could be a case of albinism.) they got really small attenades and legs you can only see up close. I found them on my cats stomach, I thought it was ticks at first but my parents aren’t convinced, she also had a few bites and wounds and such. She does go out on our deck but our other cat doesn’t seem to have them. None have been found on me or my other family they’ve just attached to my kitty. We’ve already given her a bath and are waiting for her to dry before giving her medicine. I live in Virginia and near water if that helps. Me and my family can’t really identify it.

Possible centipede that crawls backwards in central Texas?

Hey y’all! I live on some land just outside of Austin, TX and I found this guy crawling outside our house. My toddler spends so much time outside, so I want to see if it’s something to warn him away from. When I put a stick in front of it, it started crawling backwards! Any ideas?? Thank you in advance.

Found in my house in WI. Never seen one like this before. Any ideas?

Wondering if this is a bug nest and which one??

Orb Weaver? (N/E Florida)

It looks like some kind of larvae? (WA State)

Who is he? Why are his front legs so long

Spider found on carousel in midwest

What type of moth is this? Colorado

Found on a pepper leaf in an urban garden in Chicago

Just moved to the rural south from Philly.. The bugs down here are a different breed!! Why do they all have neck tattoos and smoke newport 100’s? These two also seem to be exhibitionists.
